Explorer++

Patriot Front, Yes, there might be a few glitches, but don't give up - just yet! First of all, if you are running 64-bit Windows, you must use the 64-bit version of Explorer++. That can be a source of troubles. Also, Explorer++ requires Windows XP or higher - not sure of the behaviour if you have so...

Patriot Front, Welcome aboard! The View setting is tab-wide , that is, new tabs can have different views, but the same view is applied to any location in a particular tab. If you have a small number of folders, you can open a new tab for each one, and change the view to suit. Make sure you set the o...

David, Wow - don't you ever sleep? Or do you have an alarm rigged to your computer; someone posts a message and "rrrrrnnnnniiiiigggg"!! For a minute I thought you were on Canadian time... I had seen this a number of times in third party downloaded applications, and realized quite quickly t...

David, Microsoft has acknowledged a flaw/bug in the ListView control under all versions of XP when appying the LVS_EX_GRIDLINES style (ie. gridlines option). Scrolling, in many cases, gets scrambled, resulting in either missing lines or lines where none should be! I'm sure you've seen examples poste...

recommend that you let the "Hide protected operating system files" option work independently from the OS setting I couldn't agree more! As I understand it, David (the programmer) changed the method of listing files/folders in a past version Explorer++ used FindFirstFile/FindNextFile to en...

when I click on the right pane it changes the contents of the pane to the previous directory First of all, I trust you are using v1.2 (the latest)? I don't mean to suggest otherwise, but the revision history for version 1.2 states " When Single-click to open an item was selected, navigation up...

When I rename files, it readds a new extention :?: I'm not sure about that - it doesn't add anything on my system (XP SP3), BUT... renaming a file only selects the name portion of the file, NOT the (old) extension. You can alternate what is selected by pressing F2 (name -> extension -> both -> name...
