Re: From the Beginning (a running review)

Tweaking is cool, but there's also a GUI way to get the Catalog on top of the Tree: menu Window | Catalog Above Tree . :) Ah - thanks Don - I read through the options three times and didn't even think of looking in the menu! I figured it must be in there somewhere because you said you would add it ...

Re: From the Beginning (a running review)

From the Beginning - Review (Continued) I'm Already Sold For those who are reading only the reviews themselves, please be aware that after only three days of running the trial, I purchased a Lifetime Pro license. I am convinced, but I will continue with my review as if I were still deciding. Not ev...

Re: From the Beginning (a running review)

Please continue your detailed postings about your initial experiences since it's hard for us to relate to what new/first-timers may encounter that might baffle/frustrate them and which we could improve on somehow.... I will certainly continue - once that initial exposure is gone, you can't get it b...

Re: From the Beginning (a running review)

Well, to be honest, I believe you both have a few years on me. I was too young to participate in the calculator revolution of the 70s. But, Dad sill owns the very first consumer electronic model calculator ever made! It has four functions, that's it. The battery died years ago, but Pop rigged it so ...

Re: From the Beginning (a running review)

I won't quote your last post Jerry, but I agree with your list. Just the fact that I see some of the members have been here for years and Don answered one of my post and welcomed me in person is a big bonus. I will give Everything.exe a try. I've been using Mythicsoft's FileLocator Pro for a few yea...

Re: From the Beginning (a running review)

I agree completely and have made this comment elsewhere myself. What I would like to see, though, is more comprehensive support via scripting, for accessing file attributes, especially embedded meta tags, specific to the various audio, video and graphic formats, so this information can be readily v...

Re: Find Files, Contents, Grep feature

I would like to put in a request for this feature as well - reading the "XYplorer Quick Facts," I thought this was an existing feature, one of the reasons I choose to trial XYplorer. Welcome to the club! Actually I just finished adding that feature! 8) Also cheers to Ash for kicking me. D...

Re: From the Beginning (a running review)

No, no - interrupt away! That's one of the reasons I will have a final review at the end - plus, if I miss something (like I almost did with the toolbar and adding my own external programs) someone can catch it and point this out to me. But, you will notice, I did add "I suggest turning on the ...

Re: From the Beginning (a running review)

From the Beginning - Review (Continued) Gripe After trialing XYplorer for a few days, so far I am impressed with the program, but I do have a major gripe about the trial that I feel must be mentioned - that other potential customers, customers who rely on trial edition evaluations, should be made a...

From the Beginning - Review Overview After many years (I'm guessing 15) of using the same file manager, I find myself searching for a replacement. The purpose of this topic is two-fold: Share my experiences - from the beginning - with XYplorer's powers-that-be Log an unbiased, running review for ot...
