XYplorer Beta Club

Hi people.

Using Win10+XYplorer 24.20.0500 here, but have been experiencing this behavior on past versions as well.

When traversing folders in list view, sometimes a folder takes about 5 seconds or more to open, usually it's on the last folder or before that, and also sometimes when just creating a new folder and entering it.

It happens randomly.

Why is that happening and how to fix?

Thanks!

1) What do you mean by "traversing"?

2) What exactly do you do when you open folder? (E.g.: left-single-click the folder node in the tree)

3) Can you provide a screenshot showing all columns of the opened folder? (or is it not in Details view?)

For example, I have: "c:\folder1\folder2\folder3\folder4"

1) and 2) double-cliking a folder in the list view (on the right side, on the tabs)

3) Yes, it's details view.

Hmm, couldn't look more harmless.

Does it make a difference when you untick these two?:
Configuration | Information | File Info Tips & Hover Box | Show file info tips
Configuration | Information | File Info Tips & Hover Box | Show Hover Box

The "Show Hover Box" is already unticked.
I unticked the "Show file info tips".

I restarted XYplorer, tested, but the problem still persists.

As I said earlier, this is totally random when it happens and where it happens, for example, I just restarted XYplorer again, opened the same folder, and it didn't happen.

AV? See https://www.xyplorer.com/faq-topic.php?id=mse

I just read that article, XYplorer doesn't feel slow at all, on the contrary, it's lighting fast.

I completely disabled my AV (ESET) and tested, but the strange behavior still persists. It also happend when I used Avast in the past.

On my work where I use the free edition it never happened, the current AV is Kaspersky, but there were others AV in the past that I don't remember now, but never happened anyway. It didn't happen when using Win10 (now Win11).

Also, never happened when I used the free edition at home with Win10.

No more ideas at the moment. Maybe someone else can think of something else?
