Cross Panel Paste Link

In xplorer2, you can look at a panel on the left, select some items, and key a shortcut to copy or move them to the panel on the right. Is there a way to select folders or files in the panel in left side and give a single command to paste links to each of the selected items on the panel on the right...

Shortcut to create a link file in the opposite pane?

I have the focus on a file or folder in the left pane.  I would like to create a short file, i.e. a .lnk file, in the right pane to the file I am focused on in the left hand pane?

I can right click and drag to the right pane and create shortcut.

Is there a menu or shortcut command to do this?

Any way to change colors in the 16 color palette?

When I go to Editor2 options and select background colors from the 16 color palette, none of the choices are quite right for me.

They all seem to be too bright or saturated.

Is there any way to specify exactly what color I want?

Mystery MSSHRUI.DLL Page Fault

I recently upgraded to 1.8.0.13 under Win 98 SE. I tried to delete a directory.  Xplorer2 crashed with a message page fault in MSSHRUI.dll. I restarted Xplorer2.  I tried to delete the same directory.  Same Result. I restarted Xplorer2 again.  This time I tried to create a new directory.  I got the ...

Are back copies of the manual available somewhere?

Somewhere is there a download directory of back, or archive, copies of the manual?

If anyone might wonder why anyone would want a back copy, it is the appendix 9U list of changes, which isn't cumulative like changes.txt,

I too have a problem with the colors I get and see a need for better colors. Where this color comes from mystifies me.  It doesn't seem to relate to anything specific. For most background colors, I get a dark blue that doesn't make a good contrast with a dark background.  However, with a black backg...

Dropping 98 Would Upset Me

The demise of Win 98 is greatly exaggerated. The Windows 98 community is alive and well.  See e.g. http://www.msfn.org/board/Windows-95-98-98SE-ME-f8.html For a very large community, Win 98 has in fact proven itself stable, secure, speedy, and  reliable with low maintenance costs in spite of theoret...

Note to xplorer2 Opera Users

Opera has released version 9.50 with a significant change that royally screws some Xplorer2 users. Many Xplorer2 users select images from the Opera cache, copy them to a new directory, and then look at the directory thumbnails with Xplorer2 to see if there are any they need to review again or possib...

Thanks for telling me.  I didn't know that was there. However, it doesn't help my situation. Usually, when I copy files like this, mostly image files in my photo collection, I don't know where I will put them when I block them into the clipboard.  I then find and navigate to where I want to put them...

Note that you already have an add suffix option when you elect Rename target in the Transfer options dialog box.



What is that?  All I get is a confirm file replace dialog box with a yes/no option.  I don't see anything named transfer options dialog box.

I think a priority one enhancement needed right away is an another option in the confirm file replace dialog box saying add suffix, or enter new name, and copy the file. I get this dialog box often when I don't expect it. I don't know what file is what and would like it to copy the file without repl...

Adobe PDF Plug In Listed at Top of Welcome Box Didn't Work

I installed xplorer2 pro for the first time. It installed without problems. I saw the screen with recommended downloads and immediately started at the top with the PDF downloads.  Things went downhill quickly. I downloaded the Adobe ifilt41.exe file. The install would not complete.  It said the inst...
