0.84: Folders view: No LAN

[m.Th.]

The Folders view does not expand when we paste an UNC LAN share: \\<server>\<share>\<path>...

Steps:

1. Go to Windows Explorer and take a local path (eg. C:\foo\bar\blah ) and copy/paste it into the XnView's address bar. You will see that the Folders tree expands correctly to the specified folder.
2. Go to Windows Explorer and take a LAN path (eg. \\<server>\<share>\<path> ) and copy/paste it into the XnView's address bar. You will see that the Thumbs pane displays correctly the content of the folder, however the Folders tree fails to expand.

Expected: The Folders tree should expand correctly
Actual: The Folders tree remains at the last local folder, becoming desynchronized with the Thumbs pane.

On XnView Classic, it's disabled by default. I'll add a setting to enable it like XnView Classic
See Issue 1070 for details.

"Fixed"

...by adding expandUNC in [%General]

or (?) LocalTreeOnly in [General] ?
