Show Free space in target of junction/link?

Apologies if this has been asked and answered before.

When you navigate into a folder junction or directory symbolic link whose target is on a different drive, would it be possible to have the status bar show the free space of the target drive rather than the location of the junction/link?

Re: New duplicate selection feature - turn off?

If indeed there's a difference, please let me know exactly what are you doing. How are you loading folders A and B for example? I'm selecting A and B in the main window, then flatten. I check for duplicates in the scrap window as it initially appears, not doing any sorting. if you manually put stuf...

Re: New duplicate selection feature - turn off?

Just upgraded from pro to ultimate, and found a discrepancy between the two in the way duplicates are selected. Say you have two folders A and B with identical contents. Select A and B and flatten. Find Duplicates. In professional, the files from B are selected. In ultimate, the files from A are sel...

Miller mode multiplies

In a pane with several open tabs, turn on Miller mode in one tab (all other tabs non-Miller). Exit xplorer2 Restart xplorer2. Now all tabs in the pane are in Miller mode. related: In a pane with several open tabs, turn on Miller mode in one tab (all other tabs non-Miller). Turn off Miller mode for t...

To make it easier to be aware of a filtered pane, you could change the color for "Filtered panel background" in Advanced Options.

Re: blog: stuck between a rock and a hard place

Thanks Brig for your response to this misguided blog post. The economy will not come back until the virus is under control. Many people will not go out and stimulate the economy at the expense of their and their family's health. Reducing the spread of the virus is the only way to maintain the econom...

Re: xplorer2 v4.5 final released

In all previous versions, if the left pane is active, $P was the same as $L. Now it might be different. I think that's inconsistent, maybe not, but it sure can be confusing. When I send $P as argument to an external executable, I expect it to use the folder in the active pane as it always worked bef...

Re: xplorer2 v4.5 final released

Something to be aware of when you have the .. (<UP_DIR>) option turned on in 4.5.0.0: If the ".." folder is the focused item in the current pane and you execute a command containing $P, $P resolves to the parent of the parent of the current path in the pane, instead of the current path for...

Re: blog: rinse filenames

Yes, I see that " is replaced by _ in 4.4.0.1.

Didn't earlier versions replace it with '' (two single-quotes)?

Re: New duplicate selection feature - turn off?

OK, say I have a bunch of files in folder A and its sub-folders and in also folder B and its sub-folders. There are some files duplicated between the A folder tree and the B folder tree. Some of the files in B are newer, and some in A, I want to keep all the ones in the B folder tree and delete all ...

New duplicate selection feature - turn off?

* [P] When searching for duplicates and selecting them, xplorer² arranges the sort order by date so that the OLDER file in each group remains (it is not selected), and you can delete the newer duplicates, if that's what you want. Of course if the duplicate checking parameters include date, this sort...

Re: move/copy files to last used folder

You must be using single pane mode. Seems like dual pane mode would make what you want much easier.
