XYplorer is a multi-tabbed file manager featuring a very powerful file search, versatile preview facilities, a highly customizable interface, and a large array of unique ways to efficiently automate frequently recurring tasks. XYplorer is a tool rather than a toy, and targets power users and computer professionals who are looking for an Explorer replacement that deserves its name.

Changelog

Changelog

Added an experimental tweak that allows you to add Paper Folders to the Mini Tree (they will end up as the last children of "This PC"):

PFAllowInTree=1

Then you can do, for example, this:

loadtree("paper:Pictures", 1);
Note: Don't start reporting bugs here! This is completely unfinished.

Configuration | Information | File Info Tips & Hover Box: Minor rename, now it's:

When hovering over the icon
When hovering over the filename
List: Since v22.40.0216 This PC could inherit the Name column width from other list modes. Fixed.

Preview and Thumbnails: In order to avoid the annoying "Switch to / Repeat" Windows dialog as much as possible, I have experimentally rearranged the order of various methods of image extraction. This is a radical change that affects practically anything with images. The effect on the quality and speed of the image extraction is difficult to predict and will vary from system to system.
Configuration | Preview | Previewed Formats | Categories | Preview as Thumbnail: Items that were listed here but not ticked were excluded from showing a thumbnail. That was not the idea. Fixed.
SC loadtree: The Network node was lost when adding or removing paths (modify=1 or modify=2). Since 20211028. Fixed.
Floating Preview: When panning a cropped preview with the right mouse button you could get an undesired popup menu on mouse up. Fixed.

Whats new:>>

Toolbar: Slightly improved the context menu of the view-related buttons ("views", "viewdetails", "viewlist", "viewthumbs", "dark") when thumbnails are shown. Especially you now have direct access to "Refresh Thumbnails" (that's all currently listed thumbnails, regardless of what's selected).
List: The Name column width could still be inherited across list modes and tabs. Fixed.

Changelog

Configuration | General | Tree and List | List | Show item count with
folder sizes: Removed that redundant word "items" from the Size column cells:

BEFORE: [56 items] 3,290 KB
NOW: [56] 3,290 KB
To compensate for this, you will find further information in the tooltip

when you move the mouse over such a cell:

BEFORE:

3,368,196 bytes
3.21 MB

NOW:

3,368,196 bytes
3.21 MB

56 items (52 files, 4 folders)

Configuration | Preview | Thumbnails | Show file icon on thumbnail: Now
the icon is placed a little outside the picture if there is space.

Some fix

Fixed the problem that the mouse cursor automatically scrolls when the wheel is clicked on the Blink version.
If you run it with rundll32 as a trick, from the extracted folder
Rundll32 ./lib/te64.dll, RunDLL
If you specify the dll with the full path, the current folder can be anywhere. For 32-bit it is te32.dll.

Changelog

Status Bar: Now when you hold CTRL and right-click a section you get a
mini menu with one command "Copy Status to Clipboard". Lets you collect
this data.
SC get got a new named argument "thumbs_cache". Returns the full path of
the currently used thumbnails cache file if any.
Syntax: get("thumbs_cache")

Example:

echo get("thumbs_cache"); //e.g. "E:XYThumbs0aa5de8b596e9448481100523751227.dbits"
Batch Rename: The progress feedback in the Status Bar (v22.20.0213 -
2021-09-19 17:44) came too early, during the preparation instead of during the rename. Fixed.
Tools | Customize List | Size Column Format | KB (Rounded Up): The value was not uprounded for sizes > 2 GB. So a file with 4,294,967,300 bytes was wrongly shown as "4,194,304 KB" in XYplorer whereas it's shown as "4,194,305 KB" in File Explorer. Fixed.
Visual Filters / Live Filters: When passing a size unit to the filter, eg
"Size: < 1 gb", the sizes of the files were internally *uprounded* before the matching happened, so all files > 0 and < 1 GB would come out as
having "1 GB" and not match that filter. Fixed.
Visual Filters / Live Filters: A filter "Size: 4.00 GB" would not match
files that show "4.00 GB" in the Size column on Size Column Format "GB".

Fixed.

Cell Context Menu | Live Filter / Quick Search: Holy Moly, this returned the localized column name (e.g. "Taille") instead of the canonic column name ("Size"), and localized units (e.g. "Ko" or "KB"). So it never worked for
non-English language setups. Never. Nobody noticed that yet?! Do you
MLS-users even use these nice features??? Fixed!
BTW, this also means that filter and search patterns can now be shared across language barriers. Not bad.
The Klingon language files are no longer updated. Not a single Klingon has ever thanked me for this extra work. That's how they are, I know. Now is the time for them to see who they are dealing with.
Show Character Table: The change from v22.30.0001 - 2021-09-29 20:32 wasn't so clever. It can lead to mergers (depending on your active code page) where two Unicode chars map to the same ANSI char, which unfortunately happens e.g. with Turkish dotless i which is mapped to the Latin dotted i.

Changelog

Quick Search and Visual Filters / Live Filters: Better support for local column names (aka field selectors).

These kind of patterns should work now:

Création: 2021-11-16 16:11:50
Tipo: TXT File
Tamaño: 1 KB
Taille: 1 KB
: 1 KB
Even local size units are now supported (I haven't tested all languages, though; it is assumed that the unit is appended to the number separated by a space): Taille: 1 Ko
BTW, to show the Japanese example above I had to convert this file to UTF-16L, which doubled its size.
Configuration | General | Menus, Mouse, Usability: New section "Cell Context Menu" with a new option "Use localized search and filter patterns". Tick it to use localized terms (eg "Taille: 1 Ko" instead of "Size: 1 KB") when triggering a Live Filter or Quick Search from the cell context menu. The above enhancements make it possible.
Of course, you only need to worry about localized terms if you are using a non-English setup for XYplorer. Factory default is "on". This feature could actually be seen as a bug fix since it was supposed to work like this at least since v22.20.0209.

Some fix

Freeze problem when Options-> List-> Style-> Arrange icons at equal intervals is not checked
Folders with many items are displayed with large icons, etc.
Move items by dragging and dropping in the folder
Create a new file in that folder with another app such as Paint
I found that the above operation freezes for a long time.
Since it is harmful, I abolished this option and made sure to check the icons at regular intervals internally.
Also, the No browser view state has been abolished as it seems meaningless in Tablacus Explorer.
Changed to get part of the optional string from Windows resources

Changelog

Save Settings: Now there is a check of the free space. If there is not enough free space on the drive where the add data are stored, you will receive a warning. This is a very good idea as your data is likely to be corrupted and lost forever if saving data breaks down in the middle of the process. If you see this new message, you can cancel saving settings, then create the required free space on the drive, and then try to save the settings again. What is enough free space? Currently, it's defined by this formula: 10 MB + the size of tags.dat. The will probably be refined later.

Configuration | File Operations | File Operations | Custom Copy Operations | No progress dialog on duplications: Today one year ago (v21.20.0222 - 2020-11-17 13:58) I added a tweak to define a bytes threshold for showing a progress dialog that would not be shown for smaller byte counts. This, for example, would set the threshold to 100 MB:

CustomCopyForceProgressFromBytes=104857600
From now on, when this tweak is NOT set, there is a hard internal threshold of 10 MB from which onwards a progress dialog is shown regardless of the setting of "No progress dialog on duplications".
Custom Copy Progress: The "Used space" bar and data were not updated while a large file was being copied. Fixed.
Thumbnails: Now you get an error message when the temporary thumbnails stream file (which is always created, even without Thumbnails caching) cannot be created for whatever reason (the reason will be shown in the message). This failure can be the cause for white thumbnails.
Thumbnails cache: On exit without saving, the thumbnails cache was written when there were unsaved thumbnails in memory. Not anymore.
List | Drives Listing: Now the Free Space is displayed with flexible size units, regardless of the setting of "Tools | Customize List | Size Column Format", so that you see meaningful information, eg "2.34 MB" instead of "0.00 GB".
XYcopy: Updated to 2.10.0177.

Changelog

SC setthumb enhanced: Now you can use it this way to reset a previously set thumbnail:

setthumb , ""; //reset to original thumbnail

Favorite Live Filters: Now only the captions are shown in the menu for Live Filters that have one, not the whole definition, e.g.:

"Text|Text Files" {:Text} ---> Text Files

FYI, the general syntax here gives you two options (short caption for tabs, long caption for menus):

"caption" pattern
"shortcaption|longcaption" pattern
Favorite Live Filters: When adding a new one (Toggle Favorite Live Filter) it's now added to the top of the list, like in an MRU list. Before, the list was auto-sorted.
Configuration | General | Refresh, Icons, History | Icons | In tree as well: If ticked startup will be faster now than before.

Icon Overlays: Added a tweak to limit the amount of items that are checked for having an icon overlay (which takes a while). This, for example, would limit icon overlays to drive C:
ShowIconOverlayFilter=C:*
