The next version will fix at least that bogus appendix in parentheses.

I think the main source of the issue might just be a run condition (BTW, I still could not reproduce it). Something about this Downloads folder is different from all other folders from Windows's perspective. There is some extra slowness built in as if it would think twice. Well, *sometimes* at least, which makes it even worse. I'll meditate about a workaround...

Thanks for all your efforts!

Some more:

1) Was that Downloads node expanded while you right-dropped?
2) Was it just Downloads or <user>\Downloads?

1) Yes (but it has happened both ways)
2) User\Downloads

FYI I have just manually invoked the issue 3 times since my last post in 3 different fresh instances with only the Tree & List settings changes as indicated in one of the screenshots I sent.

Hello,

I am using XYP 20.70 and trying to access servers via VPN. All of them accessing via UNC path \\servername\c$ or \\servername\e$. All of them says "Location currently not available". I dont have anything ticked in "Configuration | General | Safety Belts, Network | Network"

Explorer opens all of them just fine.

I started experiencing this recently as well (definitely in one of the 20.60 releases, not sure if earlier than that, and I am on v20.60.03). I found that unchecking 'Pre-check availability of servers' resolved it (the other 3 options under Network are still checked). I don't recall changing that setting previously.

Just connected to VPN again to make test of exist command. When clicked on first server of 5 (all in catalog) after connection it opened the server path. So I was surprised it works. So I clicked on another one and it says "Location currently not available". Now when I click on any of them all results the same error. Explorer works. Here are the logs

The logs for both paths are the same, and they say it should be available. Can't see why it should not work. :?

Me neither, and it is killing me. I tried reboot the PC. I also installed new PC (still connected to our domain) and nothing works. It was working before. Now all servers say "location currently not available". I may say something wrong is in my company network, but and that I dont like to say... Total Commander, Freecommander, MS Explorer, Multi Commnader.... all of them works :(( Why? I dont understand that. I still like xyplorer a lot.. and I dont know what to do to have it working. My local home NAS is working fine. But I need to access also these remote servers (sometimes accessing them as local, because I am working in the office), but the result is the same. All other file managers works. I am willing to try anyting to have it working again.

Hi! I was not following this thread closely. Anyway, maybe the following differences between your listing and mine (no problems here lately) could be a starting point for someone here. Here are listing items that differ:

Code: Select all

XYplorer 20.70.0010  -  Windows 7 Professional (Service Pack 1), 32-bit, Build 7601
GetFileAttributes: 0x36 (54)

Current node available in Tree: True
AssumeServersExist: 1
  ShowAllServers: 1
  ShowHiddenShares: 1
MiniTree: 0
ExistItemUNC: True
ExistPathUNCQuick: True
Win 10 Pro 64bit

Hi Borut,

I tried to play with the network settings. I never had problem with this one configuration before last week when I was not able to access any server or PC. Now when I saw you have "AssumeServersExist: 1" I enabled only this one in my settings. XYP said in the bottom "enumerating servers" for 5 seconds as usualy, but the server then opened. Now all of them open quickly and it seems to be working. So the issue seems to be somewhere what is happening when "AssumeServerExist" is disabled, maybe really something changed in company network and XYP was unable to check the servers. But "AssumeServersExist: 1" seems to be working. :appl:

Ok I was too fast... It was able open the servers and the drives like C$, E$ and list the content, but when I tried to open any subfolder there it said again "Location currently not available". So I enabled also this one "FastNetworkEnumeration: 1" and now I am able to open folder, but it is very slow in comparison like it was before...

It is opening folder for 2 - 10 seconds

Here is exist command for one folder. (it was generating the result one minute)

Code: Select all
