Carbonite tab missing.
I use the Carbonite backup service and noticed that the icon overlays and, more importantly, the Carbonite tab in the file properties dialog don't show up when using xplorer2. I found an old thread viewtopic.php?t=7716&hilit=carbonite about this, but Nikos couldn't resolve the problem. Since that thread is so old, I thought I'd check again to see if anyone had more success recently.

Re: Carbonite tab missing.
these kinds of mishaps are caused by the "other" party, not xplorer2
so ask carbonite guys why do they only offer their functionality for windows explorer and exclude 3rd party file managers?
especially if the property page is missing, this is a sign of intentional malice on their part!?

I downloaded the free trial to see if it works and (at least on Win10) I can confirm it does NOT work on x2.
However, it DOES work on the latest version of Dopus (including the property page, and icon overlays). So you have to ask yourself, what does the Aussie know that you don't?
You may take some small comfort that it also does not work on XYplorer or OneCommander (blog posts apparently do have some use
If you want to use me as the pig-of-the-guineas for this, I have the free-trial for another 14-days before I zap it back into discombobulated electrons.
