Win7 Libraries

Libraries are one of the coolest Win7 features. It solves the problem of organizing files spread across networks and hard drives and by creating virtual folders. They go beyond what folder junctions and hard links offer today. Win7 Library is an easy concept for regular users to understand and it ma...

I haven't tried this on XP Pro, but on my W2K8 machine I can use alt+Z to add comments to a folder and view it in the detailed view. Why won't this solution work for you? Why do you want to edit ADS vs comments ?

For the record, I have the same problem on my home machine, but not on the office machine. Both machines are using the same version of X2. Zoni: I think this is due to corrupt/invalid/incompatible registry entries. On a new X2 installation this problem may not occur if you do not import your old X2 ...

Has anyone written a script to bring X2 to the foreground if it's running and minimized and I open a folder (from the Run box or an AHK script)? I vaguely remember reading about something that did this on this forum. Here is an AutoIt3 script to launch or activate current instance of X2. It also op...

Why can't you just edit the registry directly by launching regedit.exe, instead of doing export/edit/import ?

I would love to add awxRename and awxShellFish to this list. http://arniworld.de/downloads.htm awxRename is a shell extension to rename selected files and folders directly from the context menu. It offers few preset rename schemes, to which you can add your own. For ad-hoc replacements, you can use ...

No, its a feature. You create a separator when you drag and hold a toolbar button move it few pixels and drop it in its original location. To remove the separator just drag a button and drop it on top of separator.

Why can't the checkbox to make xplorer² default file browser be added to the options dialog?

As a new user I may want to try out X2 before making it my default browser and if I don't like the behavior, I could simply uncheck it any time without jumping through hoops.

I understand that you are using same dialog for organizing bookmarks, column sets, user commands etc. Maybe you can pass a parameter to this dialog class constructor so that it knows which type of dialog it is rendering and handle the user command case to display an additional add new button.

Hi MHP, I understand your concern. I had posted a similar request back in 2005
