It appears the Win10 Creators update has broken XY's ability to read removable media... at least for me.

I have Win 10 x64 Pro Creator's Update. I inserted a couple of flash drives and it read them alright. My phone is dead and charging now, but I'll try it later.

Win 10 Creator Update/17.90.0102 - works just fine. Removable drives show up as expected. Unrelated, but Network Mapped drives also show up as expected.

Removable drives is not the same as portable devices (phones etc).

For my LG phone, which I have properly viewed the internal storage previously (probably before the Creator's Update), the "Internal Storage" as well as the "SD card" display, but I get a ? mark for the icon next to them and no files appear in the list. It does display the Total size and Free space for each but no files.
Xyplorer did properly read the photos stored on an SD card installed in a Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS100 camera without a problem.

Thanks. Now in the latest beta (v17.90.0105) please do each of these:
Code: Select all
echo get("pidl", get("pdpath", "LGL82VL\SD card"), 0);
Code: Select all
echo get("pidl", get("pdpath", "LGL82VL\SD card"), 1);
Code: Select all
echo get("pidl", get("pdpath", "LGL82VL\SD card"), 2);
Code: Select all
echo get("pidl", get("pdpath", "LGL82VL\SD card"), 3);
Code: Select all
echo get("pidl", get("pdpath", "LGL82VL\SD card"), 4);
Does each line return a number?

Only "4" is returning a number. The first four (i.e., 0, 1, 2, 3) returned nothing on multiple runs.
"4' returned: 107430064 on the 1st run, 2nd run 107431192, 3rd 15130824
Keeps changing but that makes sense.
Edit: The above info is the same if I substitute "Internal storage" for "SD card" (i.e., a number is returned on "4" only).

Thanks a lot. This explains the trouble.
It's another story to fix it. Something is out of order in the Windows 10 Creators Update. They might fix it in the next update.

OK Don thanks. I don't access the phone that way that often. If I need to before Microsoft fixes the issue, I can use Windows Explorer.
