Xenon File Manager Portable 2.0 Alpha 5

Application: Xenon File Manager

Description: Xenon File Manager 2.0 is a complete rewrite of Xenon in C++. Please do not request new features because it is designed to match the feature set of the 1.5 release. The only new feature is multi-pane browsing which was implemented because it took two additional lines of code.

Haven't played with the associations yet, but so far all works fine except for 1 bug.

I find that really odd. I don't get any error of the sort. Could you try a fresh reinstall? If that doesn't work could email me the output of tree /f /a XenonPortable?

the bookmarks also don't get saved

I'll think about saving sort options in 2.1. I see what you mean about the bookmarks. I'll look into that.

Two things.

1. Doesn't save view settings. (Maybe saving not implemented?)

2. Error when trying to read the help file. "Unable to open requested HTML document: file:/G%3A/PortableApps/XenonPortableTest/App/xenon/help/english.html"

Didn't test it a lot, but seems nice. I'd like also to know what is the language code number for Portuguese - Portugal (pt-PT), so I can start translating Biggrin .

The language id is 150. I am suspecting that you many need to use pt instead of pt-PT, but don't quote me on that.
