Re: xplorer2 v.5.50.11 beta
...can use get_accState to "see" the existing item state, but you can't do that with any x2 macro commands Should be a SETTEXT BRITTANYSPEARS "FlipMeBabyOneMoreTime" command or something for Version 7... but for hidden files, don't bust yourself, search for HIDDEN in command fin...

Re: xplorer2 v.5.50.11 beta
Ah, thank you. That would have been easier if your macro-recorder could have identified the culprits first - I got the gist though. I suppose you're going to make me jump through a conditional hoop just to toggle hidden files... apparently yes means yes and no means no, not "XOR my arse"? ...

Re: xplorer2 v.5.50.11 beta
and who pray is the culprit for the proliferation of minute options? Not me! That's right - blame the new guy. You never said any of those carrier-pigeons I sent from the desert island actually made it through with my complaints! Like it would have killed you to send back a jar of peanut-butter ins...

Re: xplorer2 v.5.50.11 beta
or does version 5 have the same problem? Version 5 doesn't have MGAO3_NOSAVEGLOBAL, that's new to .11 (not even in .10), so no, neither a regressive nor retroactive mosquito. It was added after Nikos pondered his questionable navel after this , "btw 'save settings on exit' is a bit of a cheat&...

...blame the programmer for bad design... Nice try at a self-effacing deflection in modesty, but the Art of Zen Cynicism was born of balancing an overabundance of dismay with a distinct lack of surprise, and seeing the bright side. That said, as I'm the only one who would elevate this setting to Sa...

Re: xplorer2 v.5.50.11 beta
Mosquito: It appears MGAO3_NOSAVEGLOBAL blocks the updating of tagdb.bin even when Save Settings Now is explicitly invoked. And did your imagination go walkabout when you decided to name one section "More Options" and the next one "Extra Options"? In 1939 a bloke named S. I. Haya...

Re: xplorer2 v.5.50.11 beta
I’d like to have a crumbs bar for each pane in dual pane mode. Umm... exactly how is this crumbs thing better than the headers already over the panes? If you Right-Click (not Left-Click) any part of their subpath components, they already branch out in a manner far superior to this crumbs thing, no?...

Re: Can't open new tab with everything
Your first instance of x2 lite appears to be a non-admin process, but the second one appears to be elevated. (It's hard to tell with the low video resolution.) Are you by chance running Everything Search in Elevated mode (to index NTFS)? If so, that's why the first Open Path results in spawning an e...

Re: Deep Path Setting Disabled (Gremlinesque Bug, Solved)
Well that solves that, I guess. A lot of trouble for nothing. Why not just disable the setting altogether if it's not needed or used? Would have saved this poor monkey a lot of scratching! :D Yeah, I know save settings on exit doesn't exactly behave the way we think it does, but in the interests of ...

Deep Path Setting Disabled (Gremlinesque Bug, Solved)
I first encountered this when messing around with the beta, but discovered that it happens with the stable 5501 as well. Basically the checkbox in Tools -> Advanced Options -> Global -> Enable Deep Path Support keeps getting "un"-checked after I browse around for a bit. I can't narrow down...

Re: xplorer2 v.5.5010 beta
I wouldn't want to be held responsible... So instead you're responsible for inspiring people to get up at 7am on a Saturday to write an Ode to a CLSID. What a legacy. I mean, shouldn't there be some kind of moderation around here to prevent this sort of thing? You know I can't police myself... Wher...

Re: xplorer2 v.5.5010 beta
windows explorer checkboxes are dead easy to LOSE with one accidental click. That goes against the idea of building large selections I use single-click activation all the time - you don't have to tell me about losing selections! :D My point is that (especially when holding down <Ctrl> for multiple ...

as for this message, I thought I'd add it as e.g. DOS commands don't apply to network folders or zipfolders Yeah, but I compare drive contents (to other drives/backups) all the time, and the best way to do that is from there (how else would you select 2 or more drives in one go?).

Ok, I give up - I've gone through all the options twice and I can't find the one that disables this: https://i.imgur.com/y2tZemS.png This bloody thing pops up every time I want to run a user-command and I have the apparent temerity to do so with the "This PC" in an active pane. Like select...
