xplorer2 Lite hangs when used with ZumoDrive

Post by kunalashar »

I'd been using xplorer2 lite with no errors for some time. Recently I installed a product called ZumoDrive, that creates a virtual drive ( Z: ) on the machine.

When ZumoDrive is running, and if I start xplorer2 lite, xplorer2 lite hangs indefinitely and doesn't let me access any parts of the UI (busy cursor). The only way for me to regain control is to kill the xplorer2_lite.exe process in memory.

The same issue is not seen when I open Windows Explorer - the ZumoDrive drive ( Z: ) is instantly recognized and is accessible.

Note that the Z: drive is not a network drive, but a local, virtual drive.

I'm using Windows Vista Home Premium SP2.

Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

some of these things only work with windows explorer, have you tried any other 3rd party file manager?

ZumoDrive (http://www.zumodrive.com/) creates a virtual drive into which users can drop files and folders. The "dropped" files/folders are constantly monitored for changes. The contents of the the virtual drive are regularly uploaded to a central server from where they are accessible anywhere, any time.

After you mentioned this, I tried FreeCommander, and it instantly recognized the ZumoDrive (Z: ) and made it available for use/access.
