I don't like the breadcrumbs bar in other file managers. If x²'s behaves in the same way, and there is no address bar, then I will not be happy with x².

The address bar works - why change it to something that doesn't?

Re: v6

adding a middle toolbar isn't easy ... I don't choose things that are easy for you!! ... drive free space you can use THISPC folder which in details mode shows the free space for each disk ... "This PC" doesn't show the space graphically (as far as I can see). What I want is a horizontal ...

Re: v6

A couple of things I find useful, and use other file managers if I want them: A middle toolbar between the left and right panes. I like it if I'm moving / copying items between panes. It seems logical to have the commands between the panes. A graphical display of used / free disk space. Useful for a...

Re: Recycle Bin

the workaround there would be to select a nearby file you did NOT delete before you hit refresh, that will be remembered Read my post again. That's what I do!! But, if I forget and I'm returned to the top of the list, the air is blue!! I thought about a Macro, but sometimes I want to select the fil...

Re: Recycle Bin

I take it that's a "NO". O.K. Second request. Would it possible to remember the position in the list, either before or after the deleted files, rather than going to the top of the list? I know I can, before I do a refresh, select the file before or after the files I have deleted, but that ...

Re: Recycle Bin

as there are only 24 hours in a day, I must decide what's important to fix and concentrate my efforts I don't think anybody's use of file management is affected severely by pressing CTRL+R for the recycle bin once every blue moon, no? :idea: "Blue moons" occur too often for me!! I do recy...

Re: xplorer2 v5.5 (final) released

I got this error when installing x²:

Error opening file for writing:

C:\Program Files\zabkat\xplorer2_ult\xplorer2_64.exe.manifest

The installer tried to access the Internet, but I wasn't on line. Closing the browser, the error cleared and x² appears to have installed O.K.

Ideas??

Seasons greetings.

Seasons greetings and a Happy and prosperous New Year to Nikos, and all forum members.

Thanks to Nikos for all his good work over the years. x² is always a joy to use (even if the font is too small in the help file!!).

There is a setting "Ignore small duplicate files" in Advanced options.

Re: xplorer2 build 5301 released

Nothing to do with pressing Esc by accident, to me Esc closes a dialogue box, not the program.
Call it force of habit - old habits die hard, and at nearly 80 it's a very, very old habit!!!!

Re: new version under way

I will grudgingly admit I asked for this years ago and, gasp , Nikos implemented it. Check the Customize >> Folder groups >> Startup command to see if that does what you wish. NO!. It only works the first time, if you notice that one of the tabs displays Desktop. If you close x² with the tab displa...

Re: new version under way

I like the XTree (now ZTreeWin) concept of navigating in a tree then REPLACING the tree with the file list. I think the tree is useful for navigation but a waste of space when you are looking at a list of files. Switching it on/off is just unnecessary user effort, so why can't it be done automatical...
