Is the Network node currently working okay for you? In that case I could simply fall back to the current enumeration method if the "#61" method fails (i.e. if it's TheQwerty's computer :P )

I can't say I've ever noticed anything wrong with it, so yes. 8)

Two things came to mind (pretty late I admit):

1. Please try this tweak (How to tweak: http://www.xyplorer.com/xyfc/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=3543) :

Code: Select all

ShowAllServers=1
Better now?

2. Server Caching works like this:
- you open Tools / List Management / Servers in My Network Places
- here you add all servers you want to see like this:

Code: Select all

\\Server1
\\Server2
etc.
- And you have to tick Configuration | Startup & Exit | Cache network servers to actually use the list you just prepared.
