Original German Folder Names

Post by schehf »

Hello,

I am trying XYplorer right now.
and so far I like it a lot.

I read in this forum that there will be no other languages of this software
and I am ok with that.
The only thing bothering me a lot is that Xyplorer even shows the original Win7 system folders
not in german (like it was installed) the folders are in english
(Program files = Programme, Program Files (x86) = Programme (x86), Users = Benutzer)
and that is very hard to get used to.

Is it possible to show those folders with their original name.
I tried many alternatives to the Windows Explorer
CubicExplorer, SpeedCommander, Explorer++
They all have their problems, but every program shows those folders in german.

Thanks for your help

System: win7 x64 german

Hi,

if you tick Configuration | General | Show junctions the german "folders" should become visible (I can see them here in my German Win7/64). They actually are Junctions, that's why.

welcome!

Ah, those junctions are also HIDDEN and SYSTEM, so you have to tick the two checkboxes above "show junctions" as well.
