Suppose you are browsing on drive f and want to go to drive d. Further suppose you don't like using the navigation tree and want to use the cursor keys and enter. Is there an easy way to do this in XnView?

In Windows Explorer, you simply navigate up the f drive to my computer and select the d drive. However in XnView, you do not get to my computer going up. If you turn on show desktop, you can navigate up to the desktop. But the XnView desktop doesn't contain a my computer to go down.

In xplorer2, like in Windows Explorer, you go up to my computer and go down. You can also say alt-F1, or menu, go to, at any point to select a new drive.

In Faststone, you can use the mouse to go up to my computer, where you can select the d drive.

Doesn't XnView have something equivalent?

You can add the drives (C, D, E...) to Favourites and use Ctrl+F1 shortcut as workaround, almost the same.
