Xnview MP closes itself up in a certain folder

Post by WilliamTael »

Xnview MP closes itself up in a certain folder.
Funny, but not funny at the same time, it just happens in my porn image files folder.
It happens in view mode. I open an image, I wait 2,3 seconds and it closes itself up. No error message.
After I opened another file in another folder, when I got back to the porn folder, the problem was gone!
The hell was that? Even though the problem is gone, this report may help the developer.
My OS is Windows 8.1 fully updated.

I have gotten this error happen before. At one point it stopped now its back but it closes too quickly for me to try switching to different folder. I was wondering if maybe they're too many images in folder it's opening up in so will try reducing them and see if it stops and let you know...

Thanks Pierre,

Just now checked back and saw your suggestion. However I did try clearing out the folder and its working fine now. Seems there's a limit that when crossed is causing this instability. Perhaps when it happens again I'll experiment further by moving files out in batches to see at what point the issue is triggered....

Hi guys, It's back again . When I checked the size of the folder in question was 382 MB. Next I tried removing 2 MB worth of images and the problem stopped so it seems that the trigger point is somewhere above 380 MB.....

Any thoughts on this?
