how to get xmouse to work in windows explorer?
Friday, July 16, 2004 by tealfan | Discussion: Stardock Software
XMouse is that feature in TweakUI that that activates a window (or frame) on mouse hover rather than mouse click. I hope I explained that correctly...lol. Anyway, this also used to work between panes in Windows Explorer. But, now that I've upgraded to XP, it no longer works in Explorer. Any ideas? Thanks.

I thought I did. But, since it works for you, maybe I grabbed the wrong one...lol. Just to clarify, it works everywhere else: when I go from one window to another, when I'm on a web page and I go from one frame to another, etc. But, in Windows Explorer, I like to have the folders pane on the left side open. It doesn't work when I move my mouse back forth between the left pane and the main pane on the right. I'l double-check my download when I get home. Thanks,

Did you download the XP version of Powertoys?

It's working just fine for me.
