That's how it should be. I wonder why it does not work. :?

Untick this and then tick it again:
Configuration | Other | Shell Integration | Default File Manager | [x] XYplorer is default file manager

It should lead to this in the registry:

Code: Select all

Current user
============
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Directory\Shell\XYplorer]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Drive\Shell\XYplorer]


All users
=========
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Directory\Shell\XYplorer]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Drive\Shell\XYplorer]

Solution!
  • Go to Computer\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Shell\Add to ScreenPad\command
    Right Click>"Modify"
    Paste this value data
    "C:\Program Files (x86)\XYplorer\XYplorer.exe" "%V"

This solution still leaves the 2nd screen/screenpad in a functional state. The only thing that was changed was how the screenpad reacts when you double click on a folder or choose to "add to screenpad" from a right click in the context menu.

Maybe you can optimize this solution so we can keep that "add to screenpad" context option functional. But this is the best fix I've been able to find so far!

So you overwrote the "Add to ScreenPad" command with "Open XYplorer". Cool, if it works for you. :tup:
