I agree with otlaolap, I don't like them either. Ugly is how I would describe them. Sadly, you wasted two days!!

For what it's worth, my friend in Frankfurt am Main (as he prefers to call it) says it should be Adressleiste - the single "d".

Thank you.

I was expecting you to come up with some complex explanation, possibly involving a Greek philosopher, as to why your message was the better one.

Search results message.

"The search didn't go very well..." implies that there was a problem with the search, which is not strictly true. Something like: No duplicate files found... Do you want to revise your comparison parameters? Or try a new scan with a different set of folders. Also, I think "Yes" s...

Re: xplorer2 update

No.
x² takes it's time if the drives are available, but that is what I would expect since some directories have tens of thousands of files.

Re: xplorer2 update

x² does not hang. In fact the giveaway that the drives are not there is that it opens very fast and shows Desktop on most tabs, rather than the correct directory. The SCSI drives are connected to the server so are, in effect, network drives. The problem with them is that I sometimes change, or remov...

Re: xplorer2 update

in xplorer2 you can get the original tabs using CUSTOMIZE > FOLDER GROUPS > STARTUP menu command Thank you for that. I would never in a month of Sundays, have thought of trying "Custoimze|Folder Groups|Startup". Even the tip in the status bar "... present at program startup" wou...

Re: xplorer2 update

The SCSI drives have a button on the front of them "Un-mount". Pressing it spins down the drive, releases the handle lock, which then enables the drive to be pulled out of the caddy. If /N is for removable drives, then it doesn't seem to work for the USB drives. They are not shown if the d...

Re: xplorer2 update

for unavailable drives either use /N command line switch or press ESC key while xplorer2 appears stuck ... It is not "stuck" waiting for a network drive. These are removable SCSI drives in a caddy, /N has no effect. The tab displays the Desktop then, if I close x², the Desktop is displaye...

Re: xplorer2 update

The one thing that catches me out is when I open x² and one, or more, of the tabs points to a removable drive that is not there. I then have to kill x² (closing it does not work), mount the drive, and then open x² again. Can you enable x² to remember removable drives that do not exist? Rather than d...

Re: (last?) beta 0.19

Is this going to be fixed? If Alt+Tab cannot be made to work in phase 1 and 3, then DeClone is not going to work for me.
