XYplorer Beta Club

Using the keyboard in all other explorers I have used, when you select a disk drive in the right explorer pane and press enter, unlike in XYplorer, you are taken to the disk drive's root directory. Is there any way to make XYplorer work like this?

Works in XY as well. Describe again what exactly you are doing.

Thanks for your reply. As you can see, my D drive is selected in the right XY pane but when I hit enter nothing happens. If I was using Windows Explorer or Powerdesk Explorer then, after hitting enter, it would take me to the D drive's root directory.

From your comments, I have a feeling that this may be something specific to my particular XP Pro installation.

Just double checked on my system...works just fine here also...however, I'm not on XP...

Well, XP Pro here and the behavior you described has always worked fine on XY for me, and still does. I tried with "List" set as View, as I think that's what you use (judging on your screenshot), just in case, no problem either.

The only thing I noticed is you have "(D:) Label" used, while I get "Label (D:)" but that's probably just a Windows setting that I don't think should affect anything, so I have no idea why it wouldn't work for you.

So you say nothing happens, at all. No error message, anything. What if you double-click instead, does it work then?

Go with Jacky's saying here, works as expected on my XP Pro.

The only thing I noticed is you have "(D:) Label" used, while I get "Label (D:)" but that's probably just a Windows setting that I don't think should affect anything, so I have no idea why it wouldn't work for you.

You have just solved my problem because, actually, I guess the windows settings do affect things. I have just used TweakUI > My Computer > Drive Letters to display the drive letter after the label and now everything seems to work fine.

Thank you so much.

Personally I'd call this a bug if this really is the case...

/me goes off to check it out with TweakUI

I'd call this an embarassing bug! Just fixed it.
