Re: 1.9.2 - face tag - write issue

I am having the same problem. I have an image with two faces already identified. The tags were first created in Microsoft Photo Gallery but they probably now already exist in XMP form, as i scanned the folder in TagThatPhoto. There is a third face in the picture that did not have a face tag. I select all the images in the folder. The Face Tag applet opens, I go to this image and create an area to tag, enter the name and CR to confirm it, then Write. But when I go to another image and come back the new tag is not present. I am running XNView MP 1.9.2 64-bit (Windows), Libformat 7.226 under Windows 10.
