It's a good idea to backup your complete XYplorer settings (menu File | Settings Special | Backup Application Data Folder...)

v12.20.0206 - 2013-03-03 20:10
    + Address Bar: Additional support for the TAB key:
      On closed match list:
        TAB:      If content NOT selected and caret on right end:
                    Open match list.
      On dropped match list:
        TAB:        Move down in match list (to first item if none selected).
        Shift+TAB:  Move up in match list (to last item if none selected).
        Ctrl+TAB:   Update match list to current list item.
        Ctrl+Alt+TAB: Update match list to parent of current list item.
    + Address Bar: Now, when no dropdown is open and the contents are 
      current, ESC toggles the selected state of the AB contents: If 
      there is any selection, ESC will remove it (caret to right end), 
      else ESC will select all.
      FYI, when the contents are non-current (e.g. when you type 
      something into the AB) ESC will restore the contents. This has 
      always worked like that.
To download the latest BETA version choose a download package: (1) Installer Package, (2) No-Install Package.

    + Address Bar: Changes and enhancements in TAB key support:
      On closed match list:
        Ctrl+TAB:   Open match list at cursor position.
      On dropped match list:
        TAB:        Move down in match list (to first item if none selected).
        Shift+TAB:  Move up in match list (to last item if none selected).
        Ctrl+TAB:   Update match list to current list item.
                    If no list item selected: close match list.
        Ctrl+Shift+TAB: Update match list to parent of current list item.
        [Ctrl+Alt+TAB:   (the same, but will not work on Win7 and later)]
      So here we have 4KN: Ctrl, Shift, TAB, Enter = full navigation.
    * To make the above work from now on Ctrl+TAB and Ctrl+Shift+TAB 
      will not trigger "Cycle Tabs" (or whatever function you assigned 
      these combinations to) anymore when the focus is in the Address 
      Bar.

    * Background Jobs: From now on, you get "Start Job Now" in a pending 
      job's context menu also when the queue is not paused. Before, this 
      command was only shown when the queue was paused.

v12.20.0302 - 2013-03-05 21:36
    * Auto-Complete: Some experimental refinements:
      - Matching paths are listed unslashed again (as already before 
        v12.20.0201). This conforms to the standard shell auto-complete 
        and allows for going down a level by typing "\".
      - When you move around the match list by Tab or arrows and leave 
        the list at the upper or lower end, then the list gets totally 
        unselected and the edit box is restored to the original text 
        that triggered the list. Again standard, and useful too.
    + MCN: Now Ctrl+Click on the edit box icon will open/update the 
      match list to the parent of the current Address Bar item.
To download the latest BETA version choose a download package: (1) Installer Package, (2) No-Install Package.

    + MCN: The context menu of the dropdown list items now features the 
      command "Up" to browse the parent folder of the currently browsed 
      folder. Functionally identical to Ctrl+Click on the edit box icon.
    + MCN: Now the wheel for scrolling the match list also works over 
      the edit box.

v12.20.0401 - 2013-03-08 21:42
    + Recent File Operations: Pops a menu by which you can apply recent 
      file operations (Copy and Move) to the currently selected files, 
      using the same operation and target path as recently.
      The menu draws its data from the Action Log and is organized in 
      two sections:
      - Section 1: Recent file operations from *here*, chronologically 
        ordered from youngest to oldest (up to 10)
      - Section 2: recent file operations from *elsewhere*, 
        chronologically ordered from youngest to oldest (up to 10)
      Copy and Move operations are mixed, Move is indented for clearer 
      distinction.
      NOTE: This feature is work in progress (but appears to work very 
      well and to be very useful) and is currently only reachable via a 
      pseudo scripting command:
        ::rfo;
      Planned is a menu command and a toolbar button with dropdown.
    % List: Switching views while thumbnails are being created works 
      smoothly now.

      (Visual Filter) the list by this type.

      shortcut.
    + Tweak "StatusBarNoVersion": Set to 1 to suppress showing the file

      the file version info can be slow with certain virus scanners.
        StatusBarNoVersion=1

    + Menu View | Tab: Added command "Type Stats and Filter".
    + Toolbar | Type Stats and Filter: Now you can modify the sort order 
      of the popup menu via right-clicking the button. There are two 
      options:
        - Sort by Count (factory default)
        - Sort by Extension
      This also affects the popup triggered by Menu View | Tab | Type 
      Stats and Filter.
    + Configuration | Controls and More | Miscellaneous: Added option 
      "Show version information in the Status Bar". Tick it to show the 
      embedded version information of exectuables, DLLs, DRVs, etc. (if 
      they have any) right in the Status Bar on selecting such a file.
      This setting replaces the tweak StatusBarNoVersion added in 
      v12.20.0404.
      Note that previously this setting had been hard-coded to ON, but 
      recent developments in virus scanners caused notable delays with 
      it so I opted to make it optional.
    ! Edit | New Items: Icons were not shown since v12.20.0403. Fixed.
    ! Outlook Drop: Since 20120917, a tiny formatting bug could affect 
      how the template of messages dropped from Outlook was resolved. 
      Fixed.
    % List: Switching views while thumbnails are being created works 
      smoothly now, #2.
