Here's the new BETA (64-bit)

Post by admin »

NOTE: This is the beginning of the 64-bit BETA thread. The latest 64-bit BETA version is found at the end of this thread.


Change Log for the latest XYplorer BETA version (64-bit):

Code: Select all

v27.00.0906 - 2025-07-07 11:11
    > This is the first version of XYplorer's 64-bit edition (created with twinBASIC) that 
      is published in the beta channel of the user forum, in its own 64-bit beta thread.
    > The old 32-bit edition will not be discontinued entirely, but will receive bug fix 
      releases as necessary.
    + Help | About XYplorer: Now shows the twinBASIC version used to create it.
    * Executable Names: The "TB" suffix was removed from XYplorer.exe and XYcopy.exe.
    * XYcopy: Updated to 2.10.0277.
    Most users don't need to know this, but here are some points about the 64-bit 
    installation to keep you up-to-date:
    > The XY64 installer filename now begins with XYplorer64, for example:
      XYplorer64_27.00_Install.exe
    > The XY64 installer places the application into "C:\Program Files" now, not 
      "C:\Program Files (x86)" anymore.
    > The Help file is now called XYplorer64.chm.
    > To enable a smooth upgrade the 32-bit and 64-bit versions use same default app data 
      folder: C:\Users\<USERNAME>\AppData\Roaming\XYplorer\ (aka %APPDATA%XYplorer\)
    > This means that if you use both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the app with the 
      default app data settings, they will share the same app data folder. This is 
      probably not a good idea unless you know what you're doing.
    > This also means that if you uninstall either version, 32-bit or 64-bit, using 
      Uninstall.exe (directly or via Shell "Programs and Features"), that shared app data 
      folder will be nuked.
:info: To easily upgrade to this BETA version of XYplorer (64-bit), hold down the CTRL key and click Help | Online Support | Check for Updates. If you prefer to download the BETA version, choose one of these packages:
(1) Installer Package, (2) No-Install Package (for manual unpacking).

:!!: Note that BETA versions are work in progress and may contain new bugs. You have been warned. It's a good idea to backup your complete XYplorer settings (File | Settings Special | Backup Application Data Folder...) before running a new BETA. This will also help to fix any new bugs.

v27.90.0001 - 2025-07-10 15:18
    > The version number has been increased to 27.90.0001. Up to 9,998 revisions are 
      possible before the 64-bit version is officially released as v28.00.0000. That 
      should be sufficient.
      The space from v27.10.0000 to v27.80.9999 is reserved for updates, mostly bug fixes, 
      to the 32-bit version.
    ! SC base64encode: Didn't work. Fixed.
    ! TB Fix: VERSION info block 'FileVersion' string was padding the Revision part to 5 
      characters rather than 4 to match VBx.
    * XYcopy: Updated to 2.10.0278.
