xyplorer Window flashes everytime I save my office docs

Post by boobar »

Just want you guys to know this is the first ever file manager I've used in my life and I never regretted the purchase. Right now there are only 3 permanent icons on my desktop and one of them is xyplorer..
but the only thing bugging me is that everytime I save my ongoing office documents, say, when I'm writing an essay and save it, the xyplorer window flashes on my taskbar. I can only switch to it to stop the flashing/flickering. Is there anyway to stop that? it's a bit annoying.
Great product by the way.

:? Never heard about such a problem. Is XYplorer pointed to the location where the docs are saved? (Even then it should not flash, of course.)

PS: Welcome to the club, and thanks for the kind words!

hi! yes, exactly! the xyplorer window flashes on my taskbar when it is pointed to the location where the doc I'm currently writing is saved.
When it is not pointed to that location, it does not flash when I save my doc.
Any idea as to why it does that?...it's ok if I don't get an answer, it's just a minor problem, but without it the experience would be totally perfect

1) It's surely related to Auto-Refresh. But AFAIK a window flashes when it pops a dialog while it's in the background. But normally there is no dialog popped in XY on an auto-refresh event. Or is there a dialog?

2) Is that Windows 11?
