Recently upgraded to 4.2.0.0 ULT x64 2019-03-01. But now the programmable column's System call seems to be appending a "_" underscore to its output. Change System to execute a simple Echo command and the _ stays. Remove the System call and the _ is gone. Is this a regression?

The 'plugin' returns six to seven data items, the most important of which are six to nine characters long. The casing helps the user with reading the information; spacing between items also helps. The important items are standard international terms, so they need to appear in the form that people ex...

Please make the Programmable Column leave the uppercase/lowercase alone!
My program to populate the column produces output that is cased a certain way, but the Column throws that away

Now writing a program like ImgChk to serve as a handler for the Programmable column. Calling a PHP interpreter with a script and file properties causes xp2 to crash. Calling a compiled EXE works much better. However, switching to another folder before the Detail pane is finished populating can still...

Really,

formatting to NTFS would limit the use of the microsd to

any system that can use NTFS. Such as other computers with Windows Vista and later, Linuxes, Macs with NTFS capability added on somehow ...

Experimentation shows an unexpected behavior for loading the config in xp2 version "4.1.0.1 ULT x64 2018-10-17" running on Windows 8 64-bit. Background: After updating toolbar or other setting, use [Actions / "Save settings now"] and then [Actions / "Export settings" ],...

when deleting a file on the exfat microSD I get a confirmation dialog box which I don't with the NTFS

Yes this confirmation happens on network drives, non-local drives, exotic drives, USB sticks, etc ... betcha basically on places that don't have Recycle Bins.

Great! Thank you for fixing that - now zip-etc archives once again behave practically like normal folders.

Agree; 7z files are not working as a folder like they used to.

Posting a suggestion here, about Actions / Folder Settings / Save, the dialog box "Apply the same folder settings for all subfolders?" Yes/No (default No). The dialog appears only when the current folder has subfolders. The exception/bug seems to be ... immediately after creating or removi...

Yes, I already knew about the division bug and the pending fix.
This problem report is supposed to be about the Mid(Str, Pos, Len - 1) versus Mid(Str, Pos, Len - 2).

How is this supposed to work? Using licensed 4.0.0.2 ULT x64 2018-05-21. The goal: for certain log files, display the number of log entries in the file. For other files, display blank or Size [S] - don't really care. Assume the relevant log files are 1,000 bytes or larger, with sizes in multiples of...

This trouble showed up again in 4.0.0.2 Ultimate. Draft preview was unexpectedly showing PDF content instead of blank. Deleting or renaming the invalid four-byte PDF was disallowed because the file was open in xp2. Close xp2 and re-open, then Draft shows the file is blank as expected, and file opera...

In general it pays to keep the formulas simple, else they get time consuming to calculate, especially if you use non-stock properties Well of course, and that's okay. The whole point of this column is to let the program do things that would otherwise have to be done manually, or with a script in so...

Yep, that optimization works well. The first formula was also a learning exercise.
