what's wrong with the icons?
All the folders and files get the same icon.

You are not the first who noticed that. It appears to be a recent Win 11 bug.

Select one of those items and run this through the XY address bar:

Code: Select all

sysicons <curitem>, 0;
What do you get? Should look something like this, but probably won't:

In beta v23.50.0027 or later, run this through the address bar:

Code: Select all

sysicons "C:\Windows", 1, 1;
This is what I see here:

I have the same problem. This happened in nearly a month. I try to re-install the latest version and old version after deleting all the relative cache, but icons are still missing. So, I guess win11(dev) did something for the explorer and conflicted with XYplorer. Here are some details for win11 Explorer Tab.

2022.6.10 (dev) Build 25136: release the tab function (Gray)
2022.6.14 (beta) Build 22621.160: release the tab function (first launched in Build 22572 and was deleted soon)
2022.8.4 (dev) Build 25174: middle clicking a folder can open it in a new tab
2022.8.11 (beta) Build 22622.575: middle clicking function
2022.8.11 (dev) Build 25179: rolling out to everyone

PS: You can see the normal icon for a few seconds when you creat or rename a document. Then XYplorer will refresh the list and change the icon to the same "empty paper" icon.

So, Folder Generic does not work! Thank you, that explains it for the folders.

What about the files? Try this, please:

Code: Select all

sysicons "C:\Program Files (x86)\XYplorer\ReadmeXY.txt", 1, 1;
Here it looks like this:

Same here on Windows 11 Version 22H OS Build 25182.1010 [Dev Channel].
Running sysicons in address bar brings up the proper icons, just won't display in xyplorer window
