directory name invalid

Post by JConnon »

I have an Android Phone (Razor 5G). When I connect it to my win10 PC and try to open a picture from the DCIM\Camera directory XYplorer will show all jpg files and even their properties but will not open the file. I receive a popup message saying "The directory name is invalid."

How do I resolve this?

Well, opening files on portable devices is not supported (see Help: Portable Devices). It might work in some cases but in not others.

On a positive note, I can copy the files from my Pocophone F1 (Android) and then open them.
So not quite so convenient, but a reasonable work-around.

Can this feature be added to XYplorer?
