Re: build 5001 released

so you are saying that you just leave xplorer2 sitting doing nothing, and the memory goes up, or it depends on your use pattern, what you are doing with xplorer2? So I have multiple systems, and on one of them I have a fresh Windows 10 pro installation with a fresh x2, I just run x2, I let it sit i...

Seems nothing helps. Nikos, is there a way to debug this, something I can do on my system to get a clue why this is happening?

Re: Couple of questions from noobie

is there anyway to make the tab blank? sometimes it opens a big subfolder that slows down the whole process! Create a user command as such: >"%X2DIR%\xplorer2_64.exe" /S:YourLayout /1 /N /M /T "C:\_empty" where you insert your layout name if you use any and the path to an empty ...

Re: Inconsistent context menu theme between different systems

that is probably a Windows thing, not an X² thing. The way Windows 10 handles themes/colors feels inconsistent across different machines (using the same OS version). For example, I can't get the dark context menu in x2 on the laptop, but I can get it on the PC, yet I don't want the dark menu in x2 ...

That's what I am doing, but I wanted navigation by keyboard (mainly because I got used to it from Windows 7 with an older build of x2).

Go to parent from user documents not working as expected

I press Ctrl+K to go to the user documents [C:\Users\MyUser\Documents], but then if I press Backspace to go to the parent folder which is the user folder [C:\Users\MyUser], I instead get sent to "This PC" [::{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}]. This happens on Windows 10 Pro with the l...

Re: Inconsistent context menu theme between different systems

But seeing how you have a dark context menu, now *I* want mine to be dark. Time to see if I can get Windows to force it dark. It's possible that if you have x2 in dark mode, it overrides whatever theme Windows might try to apply to it. I also think this heavily depends on which version of Windows 1...

There are a couple of options that might make a difference Thank you, I have made the changes you suggested and I'll see if it affects the memory usage. I doubt it will as those seem like settings that would have an impact if x2 is actually used to browse folders, whereas in my case, X2 eats 2 GB o...

Re: Only the first 20 items can have a custom icon

Thanks, Nikos.
I just checked on an older v2 installation and I had it set to 99 and forgot about it.
Is there a way to make it unlimited, or somewhere around 200-300? Would editing the value in the registry help?

Only the first 20 items can have a custom icon

Please tell me there's a way to bypass this...

I'd rather go back to v2 than being limited to having only up to 20 user commands with icons.

They don't affect xplorer2, but they can affect the context menu in x2, which is what I was pointing out.

Re: Inconsistent conext menu theme between different systems

Apparently switching to Light and then back to Dark windows theme on the PC (which was displaying a dark context menu) made it so that now it displays a light context menu in xplorer2, which is what I want, but it's a bit confusing how this works.. normally you'd expect a dark context menu when the ...

Inconsistent context menu theme between different systems

I have a laptop and a PC, both running the same Windows 10 Pro x64 version, both set to dark theme, but the laptop shows a light themed context menu while the PC shows a dark themed context menu in xplorer2. I am not sure what causes the inconsistency, does anyone have an idea? https://i.postimg.cc/...

Re: build 5001 released

I tested the behavior on a fresh Win 10 Pro installation, clean x2 install without anything added/modified, it still does that. I have also tested with an old 2.4.0.1 ULT [Unicode] x64 11/12/2013 x2, the same thing happens, so it's Windows 10 not playing nice with x2 in this particular instance. In ...
