earlier comment that MS seems to make Windows Explorer worse with each OS revision - yes, I totally agree, though it is also the way they design the whole system structure too, so not just Windows Explorer per se.Īnd re. Not so with XYplorer which seems very fast in all the folders. Windows Explorer really bogs down if I put more than 900 items in a folder and really crawls when well over 1000 items.
#Xyplorer plus#
One big PLUS I notice is that it is Much faster than native Windows Explorer when access some of my folders that have more than 1000 files/items (or in a few cases, more than 2000 items). Runs fine, nice mostly clean feeling interface, and like any new app/too, will take a while to get used to it and efficient.
#Xyplorer install#
Install does require internet access to validate itself, which is understandable.
#Xyplorer pro#
Installed to Windows XP Pro SP3 on old Pentium 4 Minitower, 2 GB RAM, fine. I'll keep it on as another emergency shell-in case of the death of explorer.exe, but to be honest I will always do 999% of my work in ztree. My PEEK.INF/DLL works in shell integration/context menus (appears to have picked up all the other context menu items and integration I already had on the system, although I haven't extensively compared explorer vs xyplorer for this - it appears the same) I can close xyplorer and ztw.exe still runs - yippee * The app target "ztw.exe" looks like it's running forked. What does the author officially suggest for the fonts I wonder? I'm assuming raster fonts are great for US highascii, while TrueType fonts are good for unicode. Looking at how ztw normally runs it's raster fonts and it shows as the highascii as it is printed. Anyway it's minor and I doubt it's xy's fault. Could just be the new cmd shell from the scripting. Yes that's the magic to finally work, but it's weird, the font was my raster fonts but it munged and looked like a v which alphanumerically comes up after z in a directory.Īlt-251 (highascii from the bbs days), something ain't right. Load "c:\z\ztw.exe" - Crash weird vertical popup thingy?!

Start, run, exec, shell, shellexec all not valid script commands. Shell "c:\z\ztw.exe" Preferably forked so xy can close and ztw run * can't drag a desktop shortcut onto the Toolbarīasically we want to do this as a simple test. * can't add a custom button through "Customize Toolbar" dialog Scripting Test (trying to exploit my shelling again. This application needs to support some shelling, and external applications or allow us to write plugins for it in my opinion. I always been up front, my favorite, my love is ztree.Ĭustomize Toolbar I tried and liked being able to add "cmd.exe button" (and it open in the working dir-nice., however/but I'm out of luck if I want to put "console.exe as a custom button", or any other application, batchfile or other language I want to shell out to or call upon as a custom button.
