XYplorer Beta Club

Hi,

I have populated the "Favorite Files" list with .exe files from many software programs.

The default XYplorer behavior is to lead me to the file, but not running it.

Instead, would it be possible to set XYplorer to click/run the files from the "Favorite Files" list?

Many thanks,

Cadu

Two approaches..

1) Enable Configuration | Controls and More | Miscellaneous | Open favorite files directly
This will apply to all items in your favorite files list.

2) Replace the entries you want to open directory with scripts.
Open the list management: Tools | List Management | Favorite Files...
If you have an entry:

Code: Select all

C:\XYplorer\XYplorer.exe

Make it an open script:

Code: Select all

::open 'C:\XYplorer\XYplorer.exe';

And you can optionally include a caption:

Code: Select all

"XYplorer" ::open 'C:\XYplorer\XYplorer.exe';

Note that this method will not work in the free edition as scripting is not available there.
