Re: Snippet Request - sc listfolder exceptions

Stuff in the likes I had in mind when talking about 'silent' operations: readurl(), [flag 2] - silent mode (no error messages) ((this is a more exact example)) copyas, [targetpath] - The path is silently auto-created if it does not exist. (('move\copyto'\flag 2, 'copyitem' and others, too)) There ma...

Re: Snippet Request - sc listfolder exceptions

By the way,
%user%\.anyvid
and the likes are false positives on your first guess of the problem.
The focus is stuff like recycle bin and system volume information, which pops the XY error messages when listfolder'ed.

Re: Snippet Request - sc listfolder exceptions

I'm not aware of any sc that "silently" fails on specific folders (by trying to access them?) It's been a while I'm away of coding, so it's hard to tell actual examples of stuf that used to pop XY script dialog with error messages that later were converted into gentle return codes, sorry ...

Re: Snippet Request - sc listfolder exceptions

Hmmm... Lets try another way: I have a distant memory that there were a script command capable of silently fail at recycle bin and sys volume info, for instance, which also were capable of providing a basic return. I could use it before recurring to listfolder, I guess. -which sc were that one...? -...

Re: Snippet Request - sc listfolder exceptions

I'll have to poll them from real usage, then, as until today I really didn't care about them seriously due to lack of time to try to fix this. Examples of false positives in quick tests: C:\Users\%user%\.anyvid C:\Users\%user%\.cache C:\Users\%user%\.cream C:\Users\%user%\.ebookreader -can this be a...

Re: Snippet Request - sc listfolder exceptions

Tested your code, yes, it's a start...
But: is there a fast way to retrieve those folders on the entire system, so I could check inputs against this black list prior to sending a target to listfolder?

Re: Snippet Request - sc listfolder exceptions

Hello, highend. That's the point: I'm trying to find a way for listfolder to fail silently WITHOUT a generic flag, so I could inform the user that folder X is not accessible because it is hosted on OS Y (which may not happen on other win versions), as those 'black listed' folders could be indexed an...

Snippet Request - sc listfolder exceptions

Hi, guyz. sc listfolder, despite help file saying 'recycle bin' is not supported, seems to have other limitations - a lot of places under 'user', for instance. Also, this certainly varies according to the host OS under which the script is run. I'm not willing to restart XY instances under certain pr...

Re: get XY icons

Anyone able to tell me the earliest XY version supporting the trick, please...?
My default 16.80 won't like it. :(

get XY icons

Despite being omnipresent, even being fully functional like under conjunction with sc popupmenu, I find it weird XY icons cannot be retrieved via script command.

Re: How to find all folders containing a certain file type

Link to appropriate help sections? I guess I'm asking for work when you really have better things to do, but for example, your way of finding settings is brilliant in its simplicity. (Not saying that would work here.) ... Hell, I know your feelings... I mean: seriously. Well: if it helps ( :titter:...

Re: Multiline tabbar

Albeit having a whole set of themes-related scripts as a considerable part of what I did here, I must admit that I dislike the colorfulness of what CompSys suggests... ...except for the crude fact that it seems the most effective way one could have to quickly spot groups of tabs, which adds to produ...

Re: A Goodbye

Hi, not-so-totally-mad-one... Just read your touching message, wished to PM but my box is full and no time to properly clean it by now, anyway... Thanks much for being cooperative, responsive and friendly. That tells much of a person to me, and you were certainly one of the best I've came across. Gi...
