Excellent. Thank you!

do you want your registry to be 50% full of xplorer2 tab settings? I don't think so! I found this topic via search, initially assuming I was experiencing a bug. I'm confused why you would mention the registry filling up. I keep about 10 tabs open typically. Xplorer2 has no problem remembering those...

The registry backup worked well. Thanks!

Getting ready to install xplorer2 on a new HD. I seem to recall in the past exporting settings, importing on a new pc, and some of my settings or customizations were lost. What settings, options, or customizations are NOT backed up via the Actions -> Export settings command? Taking a look at the x2s...

Is this behavior going to change? I prefer to not lock the browsed folder, but I also want my batch scripts to run properly.

Until upgrading to 3.2.0.2 (I was running 3.2 previously), executing batch scripts worked fine. Now, the batch window opens and closes, but does nothing.

It was evidently an indexing issue. Just going into my indexing settings in Control Panel and looking at my settings...

Yes, I am using Xplorer2 Ultimate 3.1.0.1. I do have "Search all files" selected.

Here is a screenshot showing the Excel file, the Find Files dialog with parameters, and the search results.

And here is a link to the Excel file I am trying to search within.

Thanks.

I need to search a folder with couple hundred excel workbooks for several text strings. Since the files are in hex, this is not working. I did find an old zabkat blog post from 2007 which suggests this is possible with iFilters.

Is there a way to do this in 2016?
