I'll begin trying to narrow down the crash scenario.

On "prop:#audio.channels:2" - The MS docs do indicate "2" and "1" as values, but elsewhere I found "2 (stereo)" and "1 (mono)". So I'm not sure which is right.

Interestingly... Both of these crash: (01.*.flac) AND (NOT (prop:#audio.bitdepth:16-bit)) (01.*.flac) AND ((prop:#audio.bitdepth:16-bit)) This does not crash: (01.*.flac) AND ( NOT (prop:#audio.channels:2)) but this does crash (finding no files first): (01.*.flac) AND ((prop:#audio.channels:2)) Off-...

The culprit could be among the "01.*.flac" files. What if you do this pattern? (01.*.flac) AND (NOT (prop:#audio.bitdepth:16-bit)) This crashes in the same way, at about 179K files checked. Using "0.1.*.flac" by itself works fine... finds tens of thousands of files. Also OK is (...

Win10 8GB w XY 17.00.0217, "fresh" instance. This may be impractical to replicate for debugging but I'm reporting it at least for info. I have about 8000 folders on an external USB3 drive. These appear in the list pane. Each folder has about 50 items in two subfolders below it. When I run ...

Thanks for all the assistance. Sammay has it: I need to specify an "empty" folder, not size zero. I didn't understand the distinction re folders, which also led me to think I misunderstood the Boolean forms. My first attempt was in fact "attr:d and size:0", and I did read the Hel...

The message idea is great. Thanks!

I want to set a color filter for empty folders. I thought "size d:0" (no quotes) would work, but it doesn't. I've tried everything else I can think of. Is this possible? In the course of this I tried to set Boolean conditions on a filter. Is there a direct way to do an 'AND"? For exam...

Previous wish: An option, or even just a tweak, to turn off delete confirmation on empty folders.

The reasoning is here: viewtopic.php?f=5&t=15542&p=136625&hili ... rs#p135786 though the discussion got derailed.

There was no flattenfolder() at the time. I requested that last year* mostly because of the interference with RichMove. You kindly added it, knowing you'd have to spend time refining it, fielding questions etc. I've used it ten thousand times since then. Thanks * to which some imposter pretending to...

If I use LF to find a set of folders, then drag them all to a different place: the LF search box sometimes goes blank, or blanks all but the first letter; if fully blank then it can't be dismissed by having the cursor there and pressing 'Escape'. v17.00.0105, Win10 EDIT: just saw https://www.xyplore...

I agree that it would be nice if such scripts could use Shift without creating a new tab. Many of my User scripts watch for Shift to mean "run without further confirmations" - very convenient but it doesn't work as intended if there's a Goto. This was discussed here: https://www.xyplorer.c...

Thank you! This was what originally moved me to Akelpad which is now my default text editor.

Even Google has caught on.

This remains an inconvenience with XY, though somewhat less often for me now. Maybe I'm being more careful. https://www.xyplorer.com/xyfc/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=12221&p=109610&hilit=escape+window#p109610 My suggestion there still stands - if the "Folder In Use" popup window is und...

So - further testing shows that the error occurs only if folder(s) in the List pane have a semicolon in their name. I use semicolons so often in folder names that all my earlier tests included those.

Edit: actually, if any folder in the path (above or in the List) has a semicolon
