Dexpot Forum

Hi, thankyou for your powerfull solution (Dexpot virtual desktops for windows) !

I have found one major bug:
when using separate folders for each desktop, programm creates those directories with names starting with whitespace(" ").
example:
directory for desktop 1:
"C:\users\admin\desktop\ 1"
directory for desktop 2:
"C:\users\admin\desktop\ 2"
directory for desktop 3:
"C:\users\admin\desktop\ 3"
directory for desktop 4:
"C:\users\admin\desktop\ 4"

the problem is when opening files, that located in the directory starting with whitespaces, some applications(like Windows wordpad) cannot open them. even more - it is imposible to rename or move those files using Windows explorer.

Thank you!

Not sure why this would happen, unless your regular desktop has more than one trailing backslash ("C:\users\admin\desktop\\")...

Please try this version: Save the attached file to your Dexpot installation folder, replacing the original dexpot.exe. Then enable the Dexpot log file, restart Dexpot and send me the log.

Doesn't appear to be a problem here with Windows 7. I can create, rename and delete files inside folders starting with a whitespace using Explorer just fine...

My dexpot copy was automatically updated now, and this bug was gone!
Thankyou for so quick responce!!! =*^_^*=
