floating panes in the new beta

While I was playing with the floating panes, I noticed that they are always on top of xplorer2. Not always practical when you have a small screen. I tried to use Ctrl-F6 to switch to a floating pane (windows shortcut when you have multiple windows in an application), but that was a bad idea. Like th...

Tools, tools, I like them and evaluate them often. One of the reasons that I use xplorer2. But not this one DROPIT. I don't like programs that decide for me, what I want to do. If there is a rule, that decides to delete the file, while I thought that I was printing it or zipping it up..... Argghhhh....

Maybe it is better to forget for now my report on the closing problem. While I was closing down my laptop for today, I decided to close down all applications and then start and stop xplorer2. No errors found now. :D So there is a strange interaction with another application, but because I'm going ho...

Cannot replicate your difficulties on closing the beta (Win7 x64) - it works fine.  Saving settings or not... including moving any given windows,  (I did not, however, try disconnecting any monitors.) Sorry for the confusion, but the closing problem has nothing to do with windows and monitors. The ...

I was afraid of this. C000005 is a rather bit tricky. If I start the Visual 2008 debugger on xplorer2, the fist message I get is : Unhandled exception at 0x00492250 in xplorer2_64.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x0000000000000000. But I have never used the debugger before, so I c...

Just tested the behaviour problem of the off screen "How do I?" window when switching from 2 to 1 monitor. That one lookes good. The missing window is nicely positioned in visible desktop. That means that the closing problem, that I reported in my previous message, happens after the close ...

Problem with the beta on Windows 7 64 bits. Every time I close the program I get this message that xplorer2 has stopped working. C000005 exception code, that is a nasty one as far as I know. Let me know if you want more info. Problem signature:  Problem Event Name: APPCRASH  Application Name: xplore...

Congratulations with the 7 year (I started in 2004 in the forum....) and the new beta. Just started to report that Kenny was not showing the complete menu (7-zip menu was missing in the RMB menu) but there was this new beta, and this version shows this option, so no need to report it. Have a nice we...

I got the impression that you are new to xplorer2 Actually, judging by dates, he joined the forum before I did.  Which gives me that queer bouncy feeling of piquancy virgins have on their prom nights. :D And I'm from 2004.... I did not look at the dates. Stupid me. Staring in my eyes and not seeing...

If you are concerned about such things, do not use it - Alpha means Alpha.  If you only wish to "try it", just back up your registry settings first and restore them after.  Kenny is in no way meant for "regular work", though it does maintain a decent pretence of stability - it i...

Because of this alpha the mini scrap became visible for me again. And the fact that you are deleting file instead of removing them from the list (as it happens on scrap lists) I've stopped using the mini scrap. Way too dangerous for me.

Re: Questions & Suggestions

1. When I execute kenny.exe, sometimes it loads and sometimes my x2 1.8.1.4 [Unicode] x64 04/22/2011 executes. I'm running Vista 64-bit. This happens when an x2 is still running. Kenny (and any other x2) is first checking if there is another instance running and connects to that one. So first close...

The problem is disconnecting the second monitor. I'm at home now, only the monitor of my laptop (so a complete reboot is involved). I see that the "How do I?" is active (in the Help menu), but I cannot access it anymore. Disabling, enabling does not help. It is off screen and nothing can p...
