Explorer thumbnails don't refresh after image edit in XnView

Post by lifemare »

I've tried lots of photo viewers and there's nothing that even compares to XnView MP - i absolutely love it! But it seems to be still a little rough around the edges...

Whenever i save an image with XnView, that image's thumbnail in explorer will remain unchanged unless i clear the entire icon cache or use Thumbnail Refresh Tool (which i specifically installed to fix this issue with XnView).

All other image editing programs i have installed don't cause this (Photoshop, Corel, Windows Photo Viewer, IcoFx, etc, etc).

Didn't find any recent Topics here with the same issue, so i'm wondering if this might be a problem exclusive to my system (Windows 7 Ultimate x64).

I've also experienced a bug where the program shuts down a few seconds after opening an image. Happens randomly and opening it again usually solves it.
