Hi Professionals,
Is it possible to search for empty folders with xplorer²?
Thanks!
Empty Folders

there's no direct command, but in x2 there are a lot of basic ingredients you can use to hand-build most commands imaginable
for this particular one:
alt+D (tools | statistics) will give you statistics for all the hierarchy
ctrl+C to copy all the text
paste in any editor
in there search for the text "Files=0"
this will give you the name of the folder to delete
repeat the search for the next "Files=0" and so on
you don't want to be doing it everyday, but it is possible!
