Editor's review of XYplorer 7.30

  • 5.0 stars

  • "Explore with XYplorer"
  • Version reviewed: XYplorer 7.30

XYplorer is a shareware alternative to Windows Explorer that offers more tools and file information than the native file manager. You can have XYplorer automatically show thumbs in the document list, or you can use the info panel to get a full-size preview. The info panel offers a wealth of information about files with a powerful search tool that supports Boolean logic, regular expressions, whole word matching, fuzzy terms, and more to find any file quickly.

Although the search feature is arguably the best thing about XYplorer, there are other great features included. The program offers a traditional layout for users who want to keep a Windows Explorer feel, and a tabbed layout for those ready to move on. Users can also run XYplorer in conjunction with scripts and create shortcuts to other apps. At just a shade over 1MB, it's tiny, and since it doesn't edit your computer's Registry, XYplorer is completely portable and utterly worth trying.

    Version: XYplorer 7.30

    "Awesome as ever"

    by surrender10 on July 2, 2008

    Pros: While I am amazed how fast XY is rolling out new versions, the features have become more poweful and more user friendly. User has been given full control of integrating other apps together with XY.

    With the 7.30 release user can disable and hide tree completely and replace it with his/her own custom tree (catalog). This makes XY even faster because tree browsing can slow up things (with many nested folders).

    A new script feature to read from/write to any ini file. For example, the below script will read out the time duration during booting.

    ::GetKey $a, "timeout", "boot loader", "C:\boot.ini"; msg $a;

    And switching tabs is easier now. For example if you have finished working with one project and want to switch to folders related to another project, then with one click you can close old tabs and open new set of tabs.

    A quick file compare and hard link suport has been added.

    Plus, 3 betas have been rolled out after two days of official release. So keep an eye of betas too.
