Yep. Fixed in next beta.

Not here. Something went wrong with your installation maybe.

Nope - still saying Beta

Well, 28.00.0000 was the official release and .0001 is the next beta after it.
If you download and install the 0000 version it will probably be okay.

Yes, I thought of that too - but if you look a few posts ago, it was saying Beta for 28.00.0000 as well. So presumably we need a version 28.00.0002 OFFICIAL to be sure?

Oh, there's Xyplorer64.chm and Xyplorer.chm... I can't convert both to PDF

admin wrote: ↑14 Jul 2025 09:52 Anyway, I changed the implicit date-to-string conversion to an explicit one and things look good now.

There's still a confusion with date format. For example, this happens when clicking on dates on Properties tab (only when numbers in fields are within 12, of course)

Make it a topic under Bugs.

Now that the x64 version has been officially released, will there still be updates to the 32 bit version?

Yep, once in a while. Mostly bug fixes.

Having moved to MacOS within the last few days, I can't wait for a potential Mac version of this. Finder is just soooooooooo shit for managing files, although basically everything is shit compared to XY.

Nicely put. Reminds me of Pat Metheny's "Compared to Bach, we all suck!"

Yeah, I'm afraid I will doing this move as well. Not sure when, depends on Microsoft. But their marketing strategy indicates a hard wired cloud-and-ai-connected-only Windows is coming sooner than later.

You guys think that MacOS really is the best option in the face of such concerns? Does Apple have no such tendencies? Are you sure? My reflex would lean towards Linux in such a case. Any reasons that would rather speak for Apple?
