Can't see files

Post by cwbabcock »

I'm not seeing in XYplorer all the files in the drivers folder in Windows that I see in Windows explorer.

What Windows version do you use (and in particular, do you use a 64-bit version)?

Hi and welcome to the XY forums!

Could you provide the OS you are using and the XY vers also? And give a better description of the exact issue, such as maybe a screenshot if applicable?
Still spending WAY TOO much time here! But it's such a pleasure helping XY be a treasure!
(XP on laptop with touchpad and thus NO mouse!) Using latest beta vers when possible.

I'm using Windows 7 64bit and I just downloaded the latest version of XY. 9.00.0200. I looked in the C:\windows\system32\drivers folder and there were listed only 10 files in XY. Then I looked in Windows Explorer and their were twenty or thirty or more files. So XY is not showing several files.

Wow64 file system redirection (see Help for workaround).

The XY64 bit version (2011) will finally fix this.
