In only can guess if you aren't more specific.

If you need the drivebar it's in View/Toolbars.

If you're looking for the driveletters displayed on the drivebar it's in View/Options.

For the time being or in case Nikos doesn't pick this up you might have a look at Chainsaw at

http://www.schmeusser.siw.de/software/chainsaw.html

which is a freeware file splitter also providing the batch file you wish.

X2 will helpfully do somewhat further in its development. I suggested that feature to Nikos myself and he seemed positive to it so I think it's on the wishlist. In the meantime there are several possibilities for comparing, one of the simplest is Windows' own fc.exe. For myself it's the only time I ...

In the meantime while Nikos is working on the problem (or isn't) I suggest another little shell extension which could help you out for a while: Total Copy homepage: http://ranvik.net/totalcopy/ Doesn't work right now, but you still can find DLs at the big archives I think. I'm using it frequently fo...

Can't reproduce Narayan's problem on Win98SE though.

That would be me, indeed! I'm still encountering some of these "problems" occasionally. For instance 2Ex sometimes disappears from the panel shown using the taskmanager switch with Alt-Tab (stays in the taskbar at the bottom though). But it doesn't happen always and I attributed it more or...

No, no, no, not locally! Needless to say that I'm sure you're all here to stay after discovering Nikos' little filemanager gem. But which filemanagers did you kick into the trash-bin for it? (Nikos, do you approve that discussion? If not veto now!) Anybody here who even converted from the universall...

Well, give it another try if you didn't intend to anyway. IMO it's 2xExplorer's equivalent in the browser-world.  :D Check out the shortcuts (or if you use the mouse the mouse-gestures) and a lot of other little features you don't want to miss again. And it still advertises (relatively undisputed) a...

Nikos, I hope you don't mind me suggesting another (knowing your keyboard fondness I thought obvious) alternative to IE. The current versions of Opera (now 6.05) beat the crap out of IE (IMHO, but also in the opinion of a growing group of users). *Especially* if you're fond of using the keyboard ove...

Thought so. Doesn't matter much. The advantages of the new feature outweigh the old way by far.

But it's nice to know there's a registry way back in case there's a search worth the effort.

Let me add quickly that the find modification (no wildcards) works superbly. I was going to suggest it myself since I know it from at least one other application. But Narayan beat me to that (like he did with his third star :0 ) Hm, just one minor thing. Before I could search let's say for all direc...

Reason is- The sole purpose of Windows Explorer nowadays is to replace the old 2x file with the new one. Once the new version of 2x is up and running, WE is back to its cupboard! (Most users will not be comfortable with using DOS commands.) Why do we need to use WE for such desultory purposes, then...

Why don't you list all the URLs that you already know in a new thread and ask other users to chip in? After all, this is supposed to be a collaborative effort!

Nikos I agree 100% with your opinion about auto-update/spyware. Narayan, get yourself a webmonitor instead and lock in on the 2x homepage and you won't miss an update. I recommend Website-Watcher (Nikos, I hope you don't mind mentioning soft that has nothing to do with file-managing or editing. I'm ...
