Re: Is there a firm ETA on 64 bit?

Tried a Windows 8 build one month ago. It lasted longer than my first install of GNOME 3.0 but it didn't live long enough to see the end of the day.

I successfully managed to dodge Vista by sticking to XP. I think my Windows 7 install will be with me for some years to come too.

Re: New instance freezing due to network location in tabs.

Slowdown cause number one: An active virus scanner can severely slow down file operations and make XYplorer less responsive. Especially Microsoft Security Essentials can have a dramatic negative effect on speed. Try to add XYplorer.exe and XYcopy.exe to the exceptions. Could you check that, please?...

New instance freezing due to network location in tabs.

I frequently experience long periods of unresponsiveness when starting a new instance of XYplorer which has network locations in one or more saved tabs. I understand this might be Windows making XYplorer wait for a network response from these folders. Is there a possibility to prevent XYplorer from ...

Media file conversion using FFmpeg.

I wrote a small script that uses ffmpeg to convert any media file to any format you desire. Currently the ffmpeg binary needs to be nested inside the <xypath>. I'm thinking of introducing a selection box at the start that asks the user for the location of the ffmpeg binary. You can get your binary h...

Copyright

Not sure where to put this but thought I'd make a remark on this regardless. The current Copyright page is listed below. Donald, you've put some serious work into XYplorer but none of your key features are registered trademarks? Or have you applied but were rejected? I'm wondering because a regular ...

MD5 + SHA1 calculator

Hi guys, I do a lot of torrenting and thus find myself often times having to crosscheck check-sums. I used the FCIV command line tool by Microsoft up until now. Until I discovered that XYplorer can do this too. So I wrote a crude script (not a coder at all) that will calculate the MD5 en SHA1 sums f...

[SOLVED] Howto delete locations from Backup To dialog

I remember distinctly that about a year ago it was possible to delete the list of used locations that appears in the Backup To dialog. The more items I have in that list the longer it takes for the dialog to pop up on the ctrl+shift+F7 command. I'm now having to wait at times several seconds before ...
