Post by tolege »

Launching 0.99.4 on macOS Monterey with Intel i9 reboots the machine. Version 0.99.1 starts normally.

I switched between .4 and .1 versions many times. Every time I try to start version .4 the MacBook reboots to an error report. Re-installung version .1 the program starts normally. The recent used folder is not available (not mounted) in both conditions. What can I do to help finding the problem? Is the mac error report useful for you?

The folder I recently worked on, has been a network folder. xnview opens this folder the next time it is startet (when the folder exists).
May be there is a problem, if the folder is not mounted (does not exist). I will try various conditions with existing and non existing folders.

but you should have the same problem in 0.99.1 if the folder is not mounted.
You can try to rename the xnview.ini too

I tried 0.99.6. The machine crashes as before described.
But there is a difference: the machine crashes too after reinstalling 0.99.1.
I went back to a snapshot using 0.99.1: 0.99.1 runs normally.

0.99.6 runs normally after deleting the XnView.ini file! Thanks for the solution.
