:tup: :appl: I meanwhile have a similar setting as klownboy. Additional Q: From my viewpoint it would be nice if a 32b version would be SC-updating the 32b version (=VB?) and the 64b version the TB version. Will that be the case?

Don...

If you want users to start posting in the 64bit beta thread, perhaps you should lock this one with a final post referencing the new thread. Just a suggestion to prevent "issues" being posted in two similar threads.

Is it ok to fully switch to the new TB version now?
Does the auto-updater work? Or is it still locked to the VB version?

The auto-updater will work in the next version.

The beta thread is locked. Just post your stuff anywhere in the forum like you did with the 32-bit version. Just mention that it's about the 64-bit version.

klownboy wrote: 07 Jul 2025 18:22 Concerning updates using SC update, are there any precautions we should take (i.e., will SC update work recognizing the folder the XYplorer.exe is located even if the folder is XYplorerTB? Currently, I have the new XYplorer.exe 64 version in a "D:\Tools\XYplorerTB", at least for now. The old VB version is in D:\Tools\XYplorer".
That will work in the next version.

That's great, thank you. :tup:
And thanks for your continued work, nothing short of brilliant!
I've backed up my old VB install and now fully switched to the TB version. Hopefully all goes well...

Well, it's only a beta version, and the language it's written in is also a beta version. What could go wrong? :P

Just cosmetic problem... about in X64 has wrong allignment of some elements...

However I dont know if that was already discussed, even I change drive in left pane or right pane it change drive in active pane. I have C: drive in left active pane, but when I click to change drive in right pane it does not change the drive in right pane and get focus but it change the drive in left active pane.

Can confirm that manually updated version 27.00.0907 (64-bit) is correctly SC-searching for the update (i.e. ATM confirming that it is the last beta version). BTW, regarding that small cosmetic issue with the Copyright line position on the About XYplorer form - please see the attached screenshot.

This all is a remarkable achievement. ATM it is like being in a landing airplane with the landing stripe being in sight, in full light and ready. Big congrats Don!

That will be the case in the next version.

Hi,

Check for update does not work if language selected is french but is OK if back to english.
in french language XY doesn't even open the Internet connection (whatever beta with Ctrl or not)
27.00.0912 and previous
Worked well with VB version

PS.
I think it would be a good idea to add x64 after the version number in the title bar as long as the VB x86 version still exists (for those who use both versions as long as the x64 version is not finished).
(English in not my native language (french), I use an online translator)
