Accessing the device works so far but the right click context menu doesn't look ... right :om:

This one pops up when right clicking an .apk file in the "Download" folder:

I don't have this issue here.
Do you have it with all items / on all devices?


BTW, just created the new SC PopupContextMenu. Might be helpful with debugging.

Tried it on 3 devices, an Honor 8, Lenovo P2 and an old Samsung Galaxy Plus
The same issue on all of them on all type of files

Apart from that:
- Disconnecting a device - Even a "Refresh Tree" won't remove it from the tree
- Connecting a new device - The tree won't show it (again, not even when refreshing the tree)
-> ATM XY needs a restart to remove the old and show the new device

Another issue:
E.g., connected is an Honor 8 smartphone
Open XYplorer
Single click in the tree on that device shows "Interner Speicher" in the list pane -> Fine
A double click on "Interner Speicher" shows all folders -> Fine
Another double click on ANY folder moves up to the root view, shows "Interner Speicher" again
and half a second later switches into the double clicked folder

If I navigate into the same folder from within the tree (single clicks on the + sign, finally on
the destination folder), everything works fine

XY 19.00.0110 fresh
Windows 10 1804 RS4 Build 17134.1

Did that work before the fix?

UPDATE: Just saw that it works on Win8.1. So that just another Win10 oddity. Will fix tomorrow...

Congratulations Don, you're getting there! I can now see all the folders and files in "Internal storage" and all photos stored on the "SD card" folder of my LG Android phone. If I double click any file, jpg or mp4, I receive a "The directory name is invalid" message. The hover preview is working as well as the mouse down blow up on the image icon, but the image seems very fuzzy. I can't delete any photos using control delete. For my setup, control delete is permanent delete with no recycle bin. I receive a "Not allowed here and now" message. A regular delete which for me moves the file to recycle bin works (not sure which recycle bin it's sent to). You probably knew all this, but I figured I'd give some feedback. Windows 10 Pro x64 Version 1803. Thanks.

Thanks for the feedback. The next version has a number of fixes.

I tested the context menu with 3 devices and saw no problems:
Moto G (4)
Canon PowerShot S110
Nexus 10

So that one remains a mystery,

v19.00.0114

Tree refreshes correctly (devices are added and removed correctly)
Double clicking on a folder now shows the content correctly instead of going up and displaying the "Interner Speicher" for a moment

The context menu is still horrible wrong :om:

Another thing that isn't working as expected:
Copying a file with Ctrl+C from a NON portable device, switching into a folder on a portable device,
right click on white space. The "Paste" menu entry is greyed out...
The same for the "Paste Special" submenu, apart from the last 4 entries (Mark ..., Edit ..., Clear) all
other entries are greyed out as well.

Doing the same in a folder on a local device, both menus are working fine

Hi again with v19.00.0114, double clicking a jpg image or mp4 is still giving me a "The directory name is invalid" message. Yet when I use the context menu to copy path (e.g., LGL82VL\SD card\DCIM\Camera\0110180914a_HDR.jpg), the path appears to be correct so something must be interpreting the path incorrectly. The same result whether I double click a file from "Internal storage" files or from the "SD card". There are spaces in the folder names. The hover preview as well as the MDBU is still very fuzzy. Double clicking a folder works fine.

I get nothing when doing this. The mouse cursor changes for a moment and that's it.

Btw

Code: Select all

popupcontextmenu "GT-I9001\Internal storage\Download\test.mp4", 32;
shows the same wrong context menu as in
viewtopic.php?p=159880#p159880
Ok, this is expected behavior...

but

Code: Select all

popupcontextmenu "GT-I9001\Internal storage\Download\test.mp4", 64;
shows NO menu at all...

Wow, that's on old bug, nothing special to Win10. Fix comes.

Are you calling this by pressing ENTER? Popup menus sometimes don't like it when keys are down. Could you try to call it by a click instead?

The previews can only use any embedded thumbnails, hence the fuzziness.

The other problems I cannot explain.

Yes

Tried it with a toolbar button, no context menu for the current selected file
on a portable device with

Code: Select all

popupcontextmenu <curitem>, 64;
