windows MP0.81x64 - space at end of folder name

Post by whismerhill »

hi,
xnviewmp allows "space" as a character at the end of folders' names when renaming inside xnviewmp
however at least on windows7 x64, that space breaks stuff, also as far as I know windows himself autoremoves trailing spaces when renaming in windows explorer.
examples:
-using "browse with xnviewmp" by clicking on such a folder name with an ending space character returns the error "file not found"
-using integrated "windows photo viewer": first open a picture within one of these folders then click the button "next image" will redirect you toward an infinite loading screen
-deleting or renaming or moving a folder with a trailing space inside windows explorer fails with "element not found" errors.
-windows powershell "dir" command seems to ignore such folders (they are not displayed at all)

------------------------------------------------------------------

bonjour
xnviewmp permet d'utiliser le charactère "espace" à la fin d'un nom de dossier lors d'un renommage. Cependant, au minimum sous windows 7 x64, cet espace provoque des problèmes, de plus, à ce que je sache, windows enlève les espaces à la fin de lui même lorsque l'on renomme dans windows explorer.
exemples:
-Utiliser "parcourir avec xnviewmp" sur un dossier de ce type retourne une erreur "fichier non trouvé"
-utiliser la visionneuse de photo windows: d'abord ouvrir une image à l'intérieur d'un dossier de ce type, ensuite cliquer sur le bouton "image suivante", s'affiche alors un écran de chargement sans fin.
-effacer,renommer,déplacer un tel dossier au sein de windows explorer échoue avec des erreurs de type: "élément non trouvé".
-windows powershell "dir" command semble ignorer de tels dossiers (ils ne sont pas affichés du tout)

Thanks for reading.
Merci.

NB: chkdsk doesn't seem to autocorrect this either. (although I didn't try hard either)

In v0.84 trailing spaces are removed when renaming. Closed.
