if your registry key LongPathsEnabled is enabled, then xplorer2 turns off its special handling
see https://www.zabkat.com/blog/long-8.3-path-names.htm
btw "save settings on exit" is a bit of a cheat, as global settings are always saved (bookmarks and such)

Re: xplorer2 v.5.5010 beta
at the very least match what Win Explorer already does windows explorer checkboxes are dead easy to LOSE with one accidental click.

Re: xplorer2 v.5.5010 beta
do you think you will be using checkboxes? (you answered your own question paps )
you wouldn't want to use checkboxes to OPEN items for example? some things are better done with selection

Re: xplorer2 v.5.5010 beta
is there a way to reliably use both versions side by side simultaneously? use /P command line switch to start the second, like Gandolf says checkboxes are visible when they are enabled, so you don't need to rely on the menu icon! if you read the announcement notes, checkboxes are used for pretty mu...

Re: Drive bar question
the drivebar shows only a letter for brevity. If you put your mouse over a button you see a popup tip with the full drive name
another way to differentiate your drives is to assign them a different icon, see here for more information

Re: xplorer2 v.5.5010 beta
I think that unregistered versions don't allow INI persistence
but you can save your settings and be safe. I have tested it upon myself for some time so I don't expect it to format your HD

Re: Accelerator keys conflict.
the inner dialog appears in 00s of places so it isn't feasible to get the keys right for all of them
if you press ALT+F twice you will get to the button
actually as this is the default button, just press ENTER to close the dialog

if you enable the crumbs bar, then yes it's going to be a funny interaction if you go back and forth

Re: xplorer2 v.5.5010 beta
what exactly did it mess up?
I did say you should take a backup of your settings, didn't I?
