Network Access

Post by raananb »

My Windows 8.1 and Windows 7 computers are connected through a Microsoft domestic network. XYplorer accessed the shared folders on windows 7 from Windows 8.1 with no problems until
recently. With 16.00.0100 (and its predecessor, I think) the Network view is hopelessly empty.

I can ping the Windows 7 machine from the 8.1 machine with no problems, and 'pushd \\Win7\FolderX' on Windows 8.1 gives access to FolderX on Windows 7.

Please repair.

You were probably a bit unlucky with your upgrading sequence (first v16.00.0003 beta, then v16.00.0100 official, nothing in between). It's easy to fix, set this tweak:

Code: Select all

NetworkNetServerEnum=0
How to tweak:

1. I dont see where CODE:SELECT ALL comes in
2. The line NetworkNetServerEnum=0 already exists.

@raananb

Run these two lines through the Address bar. Does any of them list your servers?

::text get("network", 0);

::text get("network", 1);

::text get("network", 0); finds nothing

::text get("network", 1); finds all

Formerly there was only one server, now there are three. I only need the one which was there before.

In that case set the tweak to 1:
NetworkNetServerEnum=1

But sure it's a bloody :bug: since this is supposed to work even with NetworkNetServerEnum=0... :evil:

Now I can reach all servers present on the network. I mentioned this with an edit on my last post, which may have been missed.
Thanks.

Your post came before I even uploaded the fix. I'm not talking about the tweak. I need to know whether the new beta works for you without NetworkNetServerEnum=1. So please set it back to NetworkNetServerEnum=0 and test again. Thanks.

And I have another question: Are you working on a non-English Windows? (I need to know this to understand the problem.)

Works with NetworkNetServerEnum=0 (still is 16.00.0100)

My XYPlorer is in English, however my computer is set to French and files and folders can have accented characters?

Great, thanks!

It's not about the accented characters but something else. You gave me the answer I hoped for. So now all is good. :tup:
