USB connected tablet does not show in XYplorer

Post by dalemccl »

When I connect my tablet to the PC via a USB cable, in Windows Explorer file browser (Windows 7) I can click on "Computer" (which shows all the drives), and my tablet appears at the bottom under "Portable Devices". In XYplorer (latest version), it does not appear at all. I've looked through all the configuration settings and have looked through this forum, but can't find a way to make the tablet show up in XYPlorer. Anyone know how to make a "Portable Device" appear?

Hi and welcome!

According to other threads and the road map, this is planed, but I am afraid it will not appear anywhere soon. I agree that it would be a great feature.

See here for more infos ("Support for Non-Drive Devices"):

Maybe there is an App that would emulate a drive on the USB connection? (Probably a wishful thinking on my part - I have no experience in that area.)

Thanks. That explains it. I hope it does get added as a capability at some point.
