create a shortcut for XY plorer for different .ini's
Posted: 26 Nov 2024 14:47
Hello,
I need to save different XYplorer configuration settings for different projects, and as it is not possible to save the .ini config file with different names in the same XYplorer folder, I have been suggested by Donald to make a backup of the xyplorer application data folder
, and then create a shortcut of XYplorer.exe with target on the backed up application data folder which contains the new .ini file, in my case Crete.ini
shortcut above
It does work, but there is a glitch, when I run XY XYplorer this shortcut which points to the newly saved config ini file, it opens up with a blank folder that points to the folder where the config ini file is saved, and I don't want that, also, it deleted the tab i created "CRETE LOCAL" which I previously saved it and locked it, and replaced with this blank folder, which is an error
C:\Program Files (x86)\XYplorer\ini=C:\Users\OFFLINE-PROC\Documents\alxdvc\XYplorer\Crete\Crete.ini
serror above
Can someone suggest a fix?
thank you!
Alex
