The program looks quite good, but there is one issue: the program is starting ver, very slow indeed. I double-click a very small image (jpg, 5 KB) and it will be displayed after ~7 seconds. The old Xnview was much faster. The same image was displayed by Xnview after 1 or 2 seconds.
Kind regards

I know this is a really old thread.

But I got here by Googling my problem, which was the same. And I found out what happened.
So I figured I'd post a solution here so it's easy to find for others :
I regularly clear the thumbnail cache via the settings, but then, when I went to the folder where it was supposed to "not" be, it was still there and weighted like 1Gb.....

After I got rid of it manually, everything went back to normal.
I hope this helps someone.

FYI :
XnViewMP
Version 0.84 x64 (Jan 12 2017)
default path for your "Thumb.db" : %appdata%\XnViewMP
Re: XnviewMP starting very slow
I found a solution that makes Xnview start much faster. Go to:
- Tools > Options > System integration > Save options
- Choose «in registry» instead of «as INI in folder»
