0.53: Bug in settings for xnview.ini

[alter4]

I downloaded xnviewmp 0.53 x64, unpacked and got,frankly speaking, the same crash for ini file location set that I have for xnviewmp 0.51 x64.
The video of the bug is http://vimeo.com/56913805. All info about windows/hardware config is in attach.

Thanks!

I can't reproduce, XnViewMP has the rights to write in his folder?

[alter4]

Yes it does have all necessary rights!

I've just tried changing the same settings as alter4 and XnView MP 0.53 crashed.

Settings:
Menu "Tools > Settings" | category "Integration" | tab "Settings"

• Use .ini in folder: Program (XnView)
• Folder for Database (.db): Program (XnView)

I've tried, again, changing the setting "Use .ini in folder: Program (XnView)", only. --> Crash.

I've deleted (renamed) my XnView.ini and changed "Use .ini in folder: Program (XnView)", again. --> No crash
Then, I've exited XnView, restarted it and changed "Use .ini in folder: User". --> Crash


Reproduced on Windows XP SP3.

The bug is returned in version 0.60 win 64bit

I have the same problem with Version 0.60 on Windows7 x64 with all updates installed. I tried the 32bit and 64bit Version. I change the Theme color, start again and I get the default theme. Then I want to change the path of where XnView MP saves the settings, as soon as I close the dialog, it crashes. Ha, Ok, I finally found something, when I change all locations to the User path, it seems to work. I am working on my computer with an account without Admin rights.



It is only working with the 32bit Version, 64 still crashes when changing the location of the user settings.

Which path do you have used? 'Program folder'?

It is only working with the 32bit Version, 64 still crashes when changing the location of the user settings.

You change only the path of .ini??

[stussy]

No, I wanted to change to path to User (system) and yes, I only changed the path of the *.ini file. Strange Windows

Was 'Program folder'? The crash occurs when you close Option dialog?

[stussy]

1. When "Program Folder" is the default location it was Program Folder.
2. Right, it happens when I close the dialog box

Where is installed XnViewMP?

[stussy]

Hello, both versions (64+32bit) where installed in the default Program folder like "C:\Program Files (x86)\XnViewMP" or "C:\Program Files\XnViewMP".

cheers

Do you have used the setup? And in the startup wizard, you have choosen 'Program (XnView)' for .ini?
On Win 7 x64, right?

[stussy]

I used the setup version, but the rest I cant remember. I guess everything else was default during the installation.

by default XnViewMP use 'user' folder for .ini not program folder
