Re: Move Search to Current Window

I have been experimenting with replacing the built in search with a call to open voidtools everything. I am already using it for folder sizes, especially on my lan, and it is far faster than letting explorer++ look everything up on disc. Still working on making the code fall back to the old way if e...

Re: Settings per folder

Which type of trouble did you have with it? I am asking because windows has a habit of providing duplicate entries with the same name for composite folders such as desktop & start menu. The only solution I found for someone else who had issues with desktop.ini in system/user folders, was to use ...

Re: Settings per folder

Really, the only consistent way to do that would be to add support for reading and using the hidden file desktop.ini which is how windows does it. Which would then require an option to turn off usage if some users did want to use it. The latter is simple, just another check box. The former, that cou...

Folder size column fix, if anyone wants it.

This program is great, it and a few other I use on a daily basis enabled me to avoid the insanity that is the linux desktop. I have been using it since I had to move to Win7. The explorer built in does not deserve to be called a file explorer, it is basically useless. I won't discuss my opinion of M...

Changing the default "Copy of" behavior.

Unable to live with the lack of 'ext' in 7's explorer, I rebelled. 8 and later are not windows, they are an appliance interface, not an OS UI. I am currently using a tweaked version of the 1.3.5 release. I added a network sync fix I found elsewhere on the forum. VS2010 compiled, and the directions t...
