Re: XP/Vbox/Win 8.1

Difficult to say, I haven't direct access to the files in my Win7 shares
either from Xywrite. But if you can browse your Win8 files from the
virtual machine, you can always drop them onto a shortcut pointing to
Editor.exe (not directly onto Editor.exe as the shortcut establishes a
running environment for the program, e.g. directory information). So
instead of calling your files just drop them onto the editor.exe shortcut.
