Double Click on filename results in error instead of opening the file

[huey_v]

When I double click a file in the file list I get en error message: "Wrong Parameter" (German: Falscher Parameter). Normally the file should open. This behavior is conistent throughout all file types.

Double clicking on folders in the list view still works fine and opens the subfolder corectly.

In earlier versions of xyplorer the double click on files for opening them worked properly. I do not know whether I accidently changed a configuration or if this is an error of xyplorer.

Please help!

Thanks, please find below the screenshot as attachement.

Formerly opening by double click worked without specific entries for the files, as the windows standard file assiciations have been used. Then after a upgrade the double click did nor open files any longer. I added for test purposes the entries for pdf and winword. This did not make a difference. Double click still does not open the files.

When I right click and selct "Open" from the context menu, the files open properly.

Best regards,
Hubert

Double Click is working now - after a win11 update has been installed yeserday. Sorry for bothering you, this is a very strange effect.

I guess you are using an Insider Windows 11 version
because there was never such an errror with any updates of the release versions.
