No network locations visible

Post by Anthraquinone »

I have been comparing XYplorer, latest version, and Directory Opus.

The most frustrating difference is in the Network folder of XYplorer. I have show network folder ticked in the options but when I try to access it it says that there are two hidden items

Directory Opus on the other hand shows the whole of my ethernet linked network - printers, scanner, router, NAS etc. I can see the same items if I use the built in windows file manager.

I assume I have missed something in the configuration of XYplorer but cannot find anything to alter that will sort this out.

Any suggestions would be welcome.

You are here since 08 May 2013. I assume this is a new problem?

I'm having a similar issue with a network location, but not on the Tree; My tree is disabled, so I'd like to get the network locations to show up on the This PC window in XY.

I've dug around the configuration and the only setting I've found related to network location is to show/hide them in the Tree. Anyone know how I might display network locations in This PC?
