The folder IVIDEO\Group1 is a symlink that points to F:\Group1, IVIDEO\Group2 to F:\Group2, IVIDEO\Group3 to F:\Group3,
IVIDEO\Group4 to G:\Group4.

With XnViewMP v1.8.8 and prior, I can select IVIDEO\Group#, click "Show files in subfolders" and all existing thumbnails will be displayed and thumbnails will be created for new or modified files. The thumbnails are remembered if I repeat this procedure.

With XnViewMP v1.9.#, if I select IVIDEO\Group#, click "Show files in subfolders", XnViewMP will start making thumbnails for all files as if there are no thumbnails for any of the files. If I select IVIDEO\Group#, click "Show files in subfolders" again, XnViewMP will start making thumbnails for all files again as if none exist. The thumbnails actually exist in the database.

It seems you are treating symlinks differently in v1.9.#. How can I get back the behavior of 1.8.8?

Thanks!
