The following error occurs when accessing Exceed Hummingbird remote FTP folder.

You are probably able to continue when you click the 'Ignore' button on the dialog.

Can you check that?

I answered with Debug option and xplorer2 caused run-time erro and exit.
I'll try "Ignore" tomorow.

Thanks JRz, Nikos. Pressing Ignore in the error dialog does allow to proceed after 2 errors and filelist gets displayed. However no file attributes are shown. Alt+K does not do anything.
Dbmon sjows all sorts of column errors. I am going to send complete log.

3676: @@@ column 27 doesn't have a name
..several of these
3676: @@@ this ain't the expected filesystem one, what are you caching?

... bunch of these - one per each folder /item

looks like those hummingbird developer dudes need to urgently sit a shell integration training course

but if it is just the attributes missing it isn't a complete wash-out...

The lack of size and time is still a problem since I can't sort files
Unfortunately missing attributes is not the only problem.
If file is added after xplorer2 start it never shows up even after multiple refreshes and restarts. The lack of size and time is still a problem since I can't sort files.
In regards to Hummingbird compatibility I never seen any other application that has problem with it and I use a lot. Please provide me with an info what they did wrong and I try to resolve it.

i can't tell exactly without seeing the detailed error log you sent me
(i will read it later on today perhaps)

hummingbird seem to belong to the class of shell extensions that aren't shell-integration friendly, that's all. They are designed to be used only with windows explorer

in the end of the day if you use these folders a lot perhaps x2 isn't right for you, sorry.
