XexDash, not to be confused with the more popular XeXmenu, is a minimal custom dashboard capable of launching game backups, FTP, and changing fan speeds. On release, XexDash was used for supporting Chinese and Japanese characters in game and folder names, a feature that caused issues on other dashboards.
- The default username/password for FTP is "xbox" and "xbox".
- If you have issues using FTP after using this dashboard, delete the
XexDash.xmlfile it generated on hdd1:\. You may need to completely remove the dashboard and restart your Xbox 360 to get it to work.
