XYplorer Beta Club

Uff, finally got it all working. Back in business! Time to release .0600, the last ever 32-bit XYplorer. And, come on, 1580 EUR for such a shiny dongle is okay

Glad you do. Makes you more human to us readers.

And that dongle is really a shiny one.

Do you mean the last 32-bit TB version or also the last 32-bit VB version as well?

I will release version 27.10.0000 as the final 32-bit VB release.
After that, there will be a couple of 32-bit TB versions, which will have bugs.
Once all the bugs have been fixed, we will move over to the 64-bit TB versions and never look back.

I hope to get all of this done within June.

Wow, didn't expect that to happen so soon. But am very glad about it. Thanks for the explanation.

Great news.

Curiosity question, when XYplorer Twin Basic addition is up and running on 64 and 32 to your satisfaction, will the name revert back to simply XYplorer. My vote is yes. They'll be enough about the transition to 64 with Twin Basic that TB will no longer be necessary in the name.

Yes, XYplorer.exe

I know you're working on the dongle/signing thing, but is there a rough ETA on a TB version that doesn't crash when dragging things?

What crashes do you get ?
I tried internal from pane to pane in XY and external Fron/to XY without any crash.
Tested with XYplorerTB 27.00.0407

I'm using 27.00.0502, it crashes whenever you drag anything.

I can confirm the problem with this version.

A known issue. Can't say when it's getting fixed. But June is realistic.

I'm not sure if this was reported yet, but I have no Hover Box for text files (e.g., txt, ini, etc.). I'm configured to have them and have them in the VB version.

It's a TB bug (that will be fixed I'm sure), but I can work around it for now.

Checking, I find the same Hover Box issue in a ::fresh instance of XYTB 27.00.0407, on Windows 10 x64. I'm configured for Hover Box with default choices of .txt etc. But what I get on hover is a small black window showing just the filename, with a carriage-return (Enter) symbol at the end of it. MDBU still works.
