Beta Concurrency - Searching

[Trasd]

Sorry if these questions have already been asked, but I could not find answers anywhere I looked. I did really look, too.

• I was wondering if there is a way to instal XYplorer's current release concurrently with the beta release (both on the same machine at the same time - but not run at the same time)?
  
  If not, can the EXEs be swapped? I see no DLLs anywhere in XYplorer's paths. It is portable after all.
• I tried looking for the DLLs mentioned above with the XYplorer's search engine. I searched both directories by typing the paths in (or copy and paste) with the pipe ( | ) separating them, this was the only way I could figure out how to search more than one directory at a time when they can't both be shown in the main panel. Is there an easier way, did I miss something? I also ended up with an orange triangle with an exclamation mark before the paths, but could not find a reference to this - I'm sure its a warning - but what warning and where are the program icon symbols defined?

As long as you install both versions in separate folders, there shouldn't be a problem.

As for profiles aka Application Data Folder, you can either set that by using a command line switch or, probably easier, by editing the startup.ini-file in the respective Application Folders.

(In case you're wondering why I capitalised the names of these folders: those are XYplorer's official names for them.)

Other than saving the search (assuming it's one you'll use more than once) as a template, I don't think so.

I'm not sure about the formal reason, but using a semicolon rather than a pipe symbol got rid of the warning symbol. You'll lose the preceding icon when specifying more than one path, whereas just one path will show the shell icon for that (type of) location.

Fixed in next version.

Thanks for the quick responses!
