Re: Launch URL with Any Browser

Thanks for the tip but my skill at scripts is very weak. However, it looks like the XY Custom File Associations almost does it as the browsers are now listed in the "Open with" dialogue. It works for Firefox, but oddly, defining Chrome and Edge the same way, it sends the shortcut not the U...

Launch URL with Any Browser

Chrome is my default browser so when I save a URL to a file folder, it creates a Chrome shortcut I frequently am working among multiple web sites and to keep things organized, use multiple browsers. I often save URLs in a file folder associated with the project I am working on I would like to be ab...

Re: No Mouse-Down Preview

Correct, I had confused the behavior when using the preview tab
I have ported all my data and programs to Win11 and have had issues with things working properly; in some cases I'm the culprit for not configuring properly.
Thanks!

I no longer can get a preview on any file using Mouse-Down.
Preview screen, F11, Floating/Full Screen buttons, all work fine with all file types.

What have I possibly messed up? :(

User Button Requires Second Click

v22.90.0100 I just transitioned to Win 11 so not sure if this is XY or something else. I have a number of UDF buttons where in the past, a single click would invoke the button action. Now, after the first left click, I get a drop down option that must be selected to fire the option. Below button wit...

Re: Win11 Frustration and Suggestions Needed

Yes, and just posting a shortcut to an Excel file launches Excel and the file correctly. I had just randomly selected Xnview to test the button feature but it isn't needed in my list of menu items. I thought perhaps it revealed a defect in the feature that might apply to other files. Thanks Don for ...

Re: Win11 Frustration and Suggestions Needed

I removed the quotes from the last item and it executed properly. I wasn't aware you were allowing for spaces in the command line. I added some additional commands and they also worked as expected. For some reason, the program above it, xnviewmp.exe, still does not execute. Instead, when clicked, it...

Re: Win11 Frustration and Suggestions Needed

No error message, nothing happens.
I added another target app to see if that might make a difference
As you see below, the third app does not appear to have any focus in the option list; and it also does not respond when selected.
Do I have the commands and syntax correct?

Re: Win11 Frustration and Suggestions Needed

Thanks Don, that looks like an even better solution but not sure I understand the instructions.

I added 2 of the items I want to offer as a selection option. When selected, the first one executes but the second one doesn't.

Win11 Frustration and Suggestions Needed

I just replaced my 7 year old PC with a new Dell and in the process moved from Win10 to Win11. Coming from the crippling security restrictions and obtuse menu designs of Win10 as well as all the related complaints that accumulated over the years, I looked forward MS finally getting it right with Win...

RDP Slow Connecting to Windows 11

(Posting here since the quality of responses is far superior to that of the MS forums) I just purchase a new Dell laptop to replace my Surface Pro 3 which has been slowly dying. My work PC and the SP3 are running Win10 and the Dell is running Win 11. By comparison, the Dell is blazingly fast yet whe...
