XYplorer Beta Club

Hi Discovered lately very bad bug in XYplorer. I have connected PDA with PC. And when selecting .wav files in PDA and dragging or just copying them to PC using some folder in XYplorer, then sound gets fuzzy and noisy. Nothing could be understand what people are talking (these are speech files). All...

... I have to add that while working with the shell API only (= XYcopy 1.0) I can add a verification only for COPY jobs, because after a MOVE there's nothing left to compare. Perhaps that's why some other programs use a hash function for verification: they hash the files to be moved beforehand, per...

For XYcopy 2.0, it seems much more robust to perform a copy (leaving both source as well as destination files) first, then comparing source and destination before, after successful verification, removing the source files. Which means performing a copy, even if the file is moved on the same drive - ...

I know we're steering away from the original bug here, but do you get similar issues (lag because of video file parsing on network drivers) in WE and/or other file managers? Um... not as much. It can still happen in WE, but to a lesser extent. XY freezes for a little while when this happens. WE *ca...

I'm not entirely sure how working with video files in XYplorer causes Windows 7 to start parsing video files. I used to have such a problem on XP, but that was fixed by disabling the file info tips (or at least its displaying the video's length, which required parsing the video file). Well, I suppo...

Let me preface this by pointing out that there's an issue when working with video files on Win 7 x64. The O/S is trying to parse them in some way. As a result, working with them on a network share takes forever, whether you are moving/copying/renaming/etc... I'm not entirely sure how working with v...

1. In 7-Zip: Options > 7-Zip > "Integrate 7-Zip to shell context menu" is enabled? If it weren't, it wouldn't show in Explorer. Not quite. Windows Explorer is a 64-bit app under 64-bit Windows 7. If 7-Zip shows up in its menu, it is by definition the 64-bit version of 7-Zip. Only by runni...

BTW, I just wrote plugin with a mental footnote "Think about this again". Is maybe "Addon" the better term, or yet something else?

Helper program?

- remove compatibility settings for XYplorer (doesn't work in this case and could cause other problems); - remove all 7-Zip installations and then reboot; - install a 32-bit 7-Zip version. I'd start with 4.65 as 9.11 seems to have some foibles on my PC. I've done all that. Sorry for rehashing the c...

Going by Locked Tabs's description in the Help file, the behaviour you describe (new locked location defined within a locked tab) is consistent with pressing Ctrl+Alt while opening a drive. I'm sure you would have noticed explicitly pressing those keys together while opening a drive :). However, cou...

I continue to see a different icon from XYplorer's in the taskbar denoting the transfer dialogue window representing XYcopy.exe. In other words, you probably have different settings active. For comparison, I have the following: - Configuration > File Operations: - Background processing: enabled - Q...

Do you happen to have previous betas (> 8.90.0002 < 8.90.0009) handy to see if you can pinpoint where things went wrong for you? I have 8.90.0003 and it worked fine as I've reported in this very thread :) I didn't read back far enough. You can't say whether the current problem was in 8.90.0004, .00...

How is the responsiveness of the Windows Shell UI (the standard Windows status window shown in response to XYcopy.exe's calling of the Shell API)? Do you mean the transfer progress dialogue window that shows up when I transfer files? It's accessable, expandable/shrinkable, minimisable/maximisable -...
