XYplorer Beta Club
On Windows 8 if I drag and drop a file from xyplorer to MSPaint I get the error message that some other file was not found. Also if I try to drag and drop a file or folder into a command prompt its path is not pasted. Both cases work when dragging from a windows explorer, as well as from xyplorer on windows 7.
Used versions:
11.90.0200 Not working on windows 8, working on windows 7
11.90.0227 Not working on windows 8 (used portable version with a plain profile)

Re: Windows 8 Drag & Drop
Any progress on this? I just updated to 15.00.0500 and it's still broken for me (now running Windows 8.1).
Re: Windows 8 Drag & Drop
I bet this there is a bug in the path code. I have noticed that when xyplorer bugs out it generally adds the root xyplorer path to the current path. This happens, say, if I try to make a favorite folder to a portable device. When I try to use it, I end up with something like "C:\program files\xyplorer\myphone\somedir" doesn't exist or whatever.

Not a bug. Don knows about this.

Re: Windows 8 Drag & Drop
I believe it's related to the fact that a PD path defaults to <xypath>\<pdpath> (when the device is unavailable). I'd reported it eariler.
Although I don't see this occuring while the device is plugged in.

Re: Windows 8 Drag & Drop
Sure, this is only happening when the device is not plugged it. Then the path cannot be resolved otherwise. No bug.SammaySarkar wrote:I believe it's related to the fact that a PD path defaults to <xypath>\<pdpath> (when the device is unavailable). I'd reported it eariler.
