I wanted to use the FVS pattern "?:\Something\" to change the view of folder "Something" on all drives but it doesn't work for all but one.
I have C and D drives fixed and USB drive J, with folder "Something" in the root. I create the FVS for C:\Something\ (the view is changed from details to list), then I change the pattern to ?:\Something\. Only D:\Something shows the folder in list view, C and J are not affected.
Latest beta.

In "?:\" the ? is replaced by XYplorer's home drive.

Re: FVS pattern doesn't work on all drives.
Ah, yes, Thanks. The help text misled me completely. It says: "You may use wildcards * and ?, and multiple patterns..." and the question mark wildcard generally is for substituting one character. Anyway, the "*:\Something\" works well.
