XYplorer Beta Club

Well it seems the current userbase (well, the ones in the forum anyway), aren't too interested in the fact that XYplorer doesn't work well with the built-in Photos app. Well, the current status is now slightly different (whether that's due to the way 24.80 works or due to an update to the Photos app...

So the summary is: if you want XYplorer to open image files in the default, built-in app in Windows 11 called 'Photos', you cannot have it do so without an annoying prompt each time asking what application you want to use. In other words, on a new, fresh, healthy installation of Windows 11, (like ma...

Yes, I can confirm, it is caused by the iPhone being connected. When I make sure to disconnect my iPhone, then all the icon problems go away.

Right, hold on, my iPhone actually is charging via my PC. I thought my testing earlier was without it connected. Let me do some tests with and without it connected...

No, no portable device currently. And even when I connect my iPhone, it shows up as 'Apple iPhone'.

Nope, just normal letters from the English alphabet.

It actually affects ALL the folders within the user profile directory. I've just given a few examples so far. It even affects ordinary folders that I've created myself, which just have a normal folder icon. Anything that I browse to, using the short path, within the user profile folder, is affected....

Out of ideas at the moment. :| Does my previous reply about locked tree not help with figuring out what's happening? To summarize, with the default tree the folder icons are missing only from the breadcrumb bar, and with a locked tree the folder icons are missing from the breadcrumb bar and the tab...

FYI, these are the standard icons on Windows 11, as seen in File Explorer (I thought you had a Win 11 system??):

It's the standard icon in Windows 11. I haven't customized anything. But the same issue applies for other folders within the user profile like OneDrive, iCloudDrive, etc. By the way, I've just figured out why in my main instance the icon is also missing from the tab header. It's got to do with locke...

Output from script using a fresh instance:
What I see in the breadcrumb bar of the fresh instance:

There is no 25.00. I assume you mean 24.50. But nobody else reported it. And 24.50 is from 2023-06-06. So something rare must be happening on your system. Do we need to wait for another user to try to access a folder using a short path, or do you think you can manage it? Can you post a screenshot o...

Sorry, I meant 24.50. The bug was introduced between 24.40.0200 and 24.50.

I've unpacked the last few portable versions to find out where the bug was introduced. In a fresh instance of 24.40.0200 the icon is displayed. And in 25.00 the icon is not.

So the bug was introduced somewhere between 24.40.0200 and 25.00.

Like I said in the original post, custom file icons is not enabled. Also, I mentioned in my further updates that I can reproduce it in fresh. And then I posted screenshots from a fresh instance.
