Portable Path and Named Drive not working for me

[Redbeard]

Simplified: I have a toolbar button that launches the following command:

Code: Select all

run "?:\Utilities\7-ZipPortable\7-ZipPortable.exe"

which gives me the error:

Code: Select all

"The system cannot find the file specified.
File: ?:\Utilities\7-ZipPortable\7-ZipPortable.exe
Parameters: 
run
?:\Utilities\7-ZipPortable\7-ZipPortable.exe"

Shouldn't that work using ?: for the drive letter xyplorer is running from?
7-ZipPortable.exe does exist at that path
I'm using the latest version of Xyplorer

I've also tried:

Code: Select all

run "NamedDrive:\Utilities\7-ZipPortable\7-ZipPortable.exe"

which also gives me an error even though I have Support volume labels in paths enabled. What am I doing wrong?

command: Anything that works in Windows Start | Run, usually a module name plus (optionally) arguments

See, it's analogous to Windows' Run, nothing XYplorer-specific.

Use <xydrive>, not "?". "?" would be literal, not a variable.
