How can I map a network drive or format disks with 2xExplorer?
A. There is no dedicated menu command in 2xExplorer to perform such operations but you can nevertheless perform such actions by clicking with the right mouse button on certain filesystem items and invoking the command from the standard shell context menu that appears. The items in question are located either on the desktop or in your “My Computer” folder. So for instance: • to map a network drive, right click on the My Computer icon (browse the Desktop first) • to format a floppy disk right click on its icon from within “My Computer” folder • to change the label of a disk, use its property sheet from within “My Computer” folder • and so on… (try right clicking on weird items for even more operations) There is a minor inconvenience involded to switch to the appropriate folder, but it’s nothing compared to the trouble I would otherwise have to undergo myself reinventing the wheel to duplicate the performance offered already by the windows OS
