Strange Xyplorer Script Running - Please Help
I'm getting a strange script running each time I use Xyplorer, please help - see attached image. I have to cancel it each time I switch back to Xyplorer from any window as it always pops up.

If you don't have a custom event action defined (that runs that script) you're using an external tool (mabe an .ahk script?) that does it...

Re: Strange Xyplorer Script Running - Please Help
Thanks for the help. I am using a useful AutoHotKey script QuickSwitch.exe that is probably causing the issue. I intend to keep using that script, so I'll need to work out how to get it to play nice with Xyplorer...any suggestions are welcome.

QuickSwitch does not start anything when XY is started.
It runs in the background and opens when a File Open/Save dialog is shown.
What version of QuickSwitch you are running ?
Windows 11 Home, Version 25H2 (OS Build 26200.8457)
Portable x64 XYplorer (Actual version, including betas)
Display settings 1920 x 1080 Scale 100%
Everything 1.5.0.1412b (x64), Everything Toolbar 2.3.0, Listary Pro 6.3.6.99

You probably just accidentally enabled Stepping Mode, just disable it from the Scripting menu.
Scripting | Step Mode
Scripting | Step Mode
Ctrl+Alt+S

Thanks so much! I never even knew about Stepping Mode, but I use CTRL + ALT + S in other applications so I must have had Xyplorer in focus without knowing when I hit that keyboard combo and inadvertently turned Stepping Mode on. Disabling Stepping Mode seems to have stopped the script running when not wanted!

Re: Strange Xyplorer Script Running - Please Help
Disabling stepping isn't going to stop the script from running when you don't want it to run. It's going to prevent you from seeing it run. So you still may want to investigate further as to why that script is running when it does.

If he runs Quick Switch in the background
it will run if an Open/Save dialog is seen.
But it is written in AHK and only communicates with XY
using WM_COPYDATA and SendMessage.

Yeah as Horst mentioned, I think it was already established why, how and when the script was running earlier in the thread.
@LBCOOLJ: If you wanted, you can disable that shortcut key combo for XY via CKS
