1.8.6 64-bit Windows - Libformat 7.204, hangs on UNC-path

Post by iorx »

Update:
Same in 1.8.7
Had to resort to this to get it to start.

Code: Select all

xnview.ini
History=
PathBrowser=
XnView: MP 1.8.6 64-bit Windows - Libformat 7.204
OS: Windows 11 64bit

Hangs when settings file looks like this:
PathBrowser=//h/bild/foto/

Effect: Hang on opening the last visited folder on startup. Program hangs.

To reproduce:
1. Go to a UNC-path
2. Quit MP XnView
3. Open XnView

Actual behaviour (bug): It hangs :bug:

Expected behaviour: Should open the last visited folder even if it's a UNC-path.

Workaround:
Edit xnview.ini and remove the path here.

Code: Select all

PathBrowser=//h/bild/foto/
to

Code: Select all

PathBrowser=
Then XnView then starts as it should. I can then paste the UNC-path and it goes to that folder without hanging.

Brgs!

Hi again!

Tried a debug=2
And got logs for it.

It actually started after a long while this time when UNC was present.

So got logs, can I attach here or should I make them available in some other way?
