XYplorer Beta Club

Free version v. 17.40 - Of late, has been eating the Disk 100% on Win 8.x.

I have disabled check for updates, Folder Sizes, Network Drives, the works.

When I close it tells me 'Unfinished operations will be aborted..continue ?'

And when I click on Yes, then it is fine.

I just noticed in the status bar it says 'checking folder sizes' - so even though I have it unchecked, it still checks it.

I recently switched from limited user to admin user. Maybe it is checking some other setting.

I will re-install and report back.

Update: wow that was a nightmare..there was a ghost version of XYP even after uninstall & reboot - cause - making it replace explorer.

Even after update and checking and unchecking a few times - same bug.

Can't wait for someone to say 'upgrade to the licensed version'...it will all be good

Stop folder size calculation by pressing ESC. Then turn it off in configuration. Problem solved. Tip: Use folder size calculation only on demand, or enable folder size caching.

Problem solved ?? Didn't you read that I mentioned I had turned it off already ?
Everytime I open XYP, I have to remember to hit Esc otherwise it will eat up DIsk/CPU/RAM.
You call this problem solved ?? I dont think so.

Might be the setting is not saved between sessions. Check whether the INI file is written at all.
