explorer replacement - Win 7
I'm sure it's a simple setting fix but if I set X2 for "explorer replacement" in Windows 7, everytime I click a link for a folder the Windows administrator warning screen pops up... would like to open a new tab in X2 without the popup warning but do not want to complete disable the window administration security.

Re: explorer replacement - Win 7
are you running xplorer2 as a forced administrator? Try running it normally

Re: explorer replacement - Win 7
Thanks, that was easy enough. I have another related hopefully easy question.
On one pc when I click a folder link it opens another x2 and clicking on another would open a 3rd, etc. I search for something like "allow only one instance of X2" but could not find it. What is the fix?

Re: explorer replacement - Win 7
Are you using the /p command line option? That option forces another instance.

Nope; if I open "my computer" and double click any drive,another copy of X2 opensFrizzleFry wrote:Are you using the /p command line option? That option forces another instance.

if you want only one window use TOOLS >ADVANCED OPTIONS in xplorer2 and choose the single window mode
