Windows reports wrong free space (does not update) to XY.
I was going to say the Free Space info is refreshed correctly, but you must've done something to improve this meanwhile, because this problem seems to have vanished now. :D :beer:

Do you have delete set to occur in the background?
This seems be solved too. I deleted multiple files in one go even with delete set to occur in BG. :appl:

1. Bug?

Create Missing Thumbnails crashes XY 15.20.0300 reproducibly ("XY funktioniert nicht mehr") on a Lumia 830 over here.
Observed with 128x128 and 192x192 and roughly 650MB of image files. When using an hard disc image of those files, the crash does not occurr.

2. How can I make XY remember to always show the list in Details view mode for a portable device?
Each time I switch the "default" Large Tiles to Details, it is remembered for a "certain" time (seems that's bound to the XY session), but when replugging the phone some days later the list is guaranteed to show Large Tiles again. Well, that's sort of annoying.

Anyway, summer - time for some hiking! :tup: :D

Cheers,
FH

I usually get device busy messages when another file operation is already running.
And also i was not able to see my video files.
See how? the files didn't get listed at all, or their thumbnails didn't show up? If the latter, probably a device-based quirk.
Does it support external hdd?
Yes.

Yes.
When I connect my note 3 and access it with XYplorer the thumbnails does not show up. When I try to view the video file nothing happens and when i try to copy it it says busy.

Okay, I'll hazard a guess: when you try to open a video file, it's actually being copied to a temporary location in you PC, and then it will be played from that location. When you try to copy in the meantime, since there's already a copy job going on, you get the busy message.

I am not sure if this was brought up anywhere before, but it would be nice for XY to icon-match Explorer when it comes to PDAs. Here is an example of a discrepancy with an iPad connected:

I ask Windows for the icons and that's what I get. Can't do any better. (My icons here are all correct, BTW.)
