hello all:
I just found out that I installed 3 different version of xyplorer, and i removed them all & downloaded the newest version.(20.90)
afterwards, video preview doesnt work anymore, instead of a static image. Theres a error message which says "automation error".
system info:
xyplorer(v20.90) running as 32bits (says in task manager)
windows10 LTSC 1809
here comes a screenshot.

Just fixex this.
I guess xyplorer runs "default video player", and my default was vlc player. Once i switch it back to windows media player, videos priview works again.

Maybe. Let's postpone this to after the transformation (to 64-bit).

If WMP is the only player XY can use for video preview, why not just look for it directly in
Code: Select all
%programfiles(x86)%\Windows Media Player
This way users could make any player default and XY would still use WMP
