Multiple Users

[DaveOzric]

Hello, I just started sharing a computer with someone and wondered if there is a way to have multiple user profiles. We both would like to have different locked tabs, etc.

Thanks

You've created two different user accounts?

You've created two different user accounts?

and install version, not portable.

Though the portable can be changed to bring the config to user specific folders.

Sorry, I meant one Windows user account. I was interested in something like Firebox or Chrome where you could have multiple profiles.

From the help file:

Setting the Application Data Path (ADP)

You can pass an alternate ADP right via command line! Simply use the /ini switch and pass a full path with it.

For example:

XYplorer.exe /ini=C:\XYdata\XY.ini

Sets the ADP to C:\XYdata\, and loads XY.ini as main configuration file from there, as well as all other data files like cks.dat, udc.dat etc.

Note that portable syntax is supported:

XYplorer.exe /ini=?:\XYdata\XY.ini

? will be set to the drive XY is running from.

XYplorer.exe /ini=XYdata\XY.ini

Sets the ADP to [XY app path]\XYdata\

You can also pass the path alone without stating the INI file. Simply end the argument with a backslash:

XYplorer.exe /ini=C:\XYdata\

Sets the ADP to C:\XYdata\, and loads XYplorer.ini (the default INI file).

This new support for passing the ADP via command lines means that you now can run completely independent configurations simply using Windows shortcuts.

Tip: The currently used INI file and Application Data Path is displayed in the title bar of the Configuration window.

OK thanks, I will try this method.

If that is what you need.
