Re: Slow startup

Some improvement, but not really spectacular. On my laptop, 32 seconds instead of over 40 earlier. Microsoft Visual Studio 2013 express opens in 2 s and loads a projet in another 3 s. LibreOffice loads up in 2 s. I checked the disk : wdc wd7500bpkt 80pk4t0 7200rpm, average latency 4.2ms, 16MB cache....

Re: Slow startup

On my Win 8.1, WIndows Explorer detects the remote workstation without too much effort; sometimes a delay is needed for the workstation to provide its file structure. MyLanViewer also detects the remote station. However, 'Network/Browse for Network Server...' in xy opens up a window which does not s...

Re: Slow startup

No large folder and no raw view.

There is, however, a local (wifi) network connection (which may be dormant), and it really looks like xyPlorer waits until it decides whether it is connected or not before displaying the local files.

Re: Slow startup

I disabled Avast but this did not improve xyPlorer startup time, which is still about 45 secs.

Slow startup

XYPlorer (13.80.0100) takes almost a minute to come up on my i7 8.1 laptop. I raised this issue in the past, but the problem persists. Any chance of improvement? My guess is that XY is trying to establish connection to a networked computer and does not display the local tree until the network scanni...

Re: Folder display

The diskcleanup service only removes system files and other files from D:. It is not really interested in D:

Is there a way to force Windows (8.1) to only use C: for its business and leave D: alone?

Folder display

My D: tree is infested with 0-length Read-Only folders like '47dad0be1a762b5521c5687eefec0d1a' or '00df2040230c7b61b7'. Checking or unchecking 'View/Show items/Show Hidden Files and Folder' and/or 'View/Show items/Show System Files and Folder' has no effect. How do I get rid of these folders in the ...

Re: Browse for Network server fails

You are right, with backslashes it connects. The 'Browse for network server' still does not work.

Re: Browse for Network server fails

The address bar at the top of XY does not work. However, the shortcut in the catalog does.
