Re: What's new in version 5.3.0.2?

Thanks. I found it now. It wasn't under changes for v5.3.0.2 though.

Re: What's new in version 5.3.0.2?

I can find no mention of it in the changelog.
How do you setup a shortcut key, please?

Re: What's new in version 5.3.0.2?

From the blog post: Compare pictures side by side. Mouse peek preview is extended so that when you have two files selected you get to preview them side by side in a large popup window for easy comparison — think windiff but for thumbnail previews. Or turn on mirror browsing from Mark menu to compare...

Re: v5.2 New taskbar icon

It's no biggie, Nikos. I didn't want the Ultimate icon that appeared after installing v5.2 and even though my silver X2ICON.ICO has been dropped in the installation folder, at least the program now displays the original gold icon. I have been used to that since 1998 so it is good enough for my purpo...

Re: v5.2 New taskbar icon

No, I have retained Win 10.

Back in the days of Win XP there were freeware programs available which allowed you to hack resources and change icons. Do those still exist?

Re: v5.2 New taskbar icon

I made a 70x70px icon and renamed it "xplorer2_Startmenu_Small" but it hasn't changed anything.

Edit: Interestingly, my new icon does appear when I bring up the About dialog.

Re: v5.2 New taskbar icon

The info on the MS site is too complicated for me to understand. The version I was using prior to 5.2.0.0 was 5.1.0.3. Is that really old? It never had the Ultimate icons. The archive with samples you provided contains only the Ultimate icons. The silver version I wanted to use is 256x256 px. Is tha...

Re: v5.2 New taskbar icon

Thanks very much. I created a silver icon using your technique and the strangest thing happened. The Ultimate icon was indeed replaced, but with the old gold version. There are no other icons in the installation folder so I have no idea how that was possible. 🤔

v5.2 New taskbar icon

Well I am sorry Nikos but I prefer the old X2 icon. The new red/cream icon may be preferred by others but I don't recognize it. Is there a way I can change it back to the old one please?

[Solved] v5.2 Robust delete dialog will not close automatically

When I perform a robust delete the dialog box remains open after completion and I have to close it manually. In all previous versions of X2 it closed automatically and that's what I want it to do. Is there a work around to this please? Edit: Scrub this last question. After a reboot, the issue seems...

Re: x2 display needs repair

this blog doesn't talk about the toolbars only. You can change font size from TOOLS > OPTIONS I couldn't find that as an option before but now that you said that I finally found the button MAIN FONT and that solved it. :) So, in order to assist anyone else that may have that question in the future,...

Re: License query

Your upgrade page refused my key saying a key had already been issued previously. This is true, I was supplied an upgrade key for v5 from v4 but that key is not working on the new machine.

Re: x2 display needs repair

It's not the toolbar that's the issue, Nikos. It's the entire interface. Text looks like it is 28pt.

x2 display needs repair

Further to my license query, I have installed x2 on my new backup PC which differs from my main machine in that its display is a standard HD 1920x1080 instead of UHD. In order to fast track its setup I ran the settings backup however, that was exported from the UHD machine and I now have a totally u...

I'm curious John. To perform a completely fresh install requires you to have a full version of the latest Windows release. How do you get that?
