ability to read Windows Cloud Files placeholder status

Post by ralph.goossens »

I am using Internxt Drive for Windows for syncing files to the cloud and for online backups.

Because Internxt Drive is built on the Windows Cloud Files API (the same technology OneDrive uses for Files On-Demand) the overlay icons showing the sync status are not working in XYplorer.
This API causes the sync status icons to be drawn directly from the file's placeholder state, not through a classic shell icon overlay handler.
Therefore I cannot tweak the CLSID under ShellIconOverlayIdentifiers in the Registry to fix the problem, because these CLSID do not exist for Internxt Drive.

My feature request is to add to XYplorer that it can read Cloud Files placeholder states.
OneDrive users would also benefit from this, because OneDrive uses the same Windows Cloud Files API.

Have you tried using the inbuilt "Status" column?
