File/Open in which mode??
And what do you means by 'illegal activity'???

Open:
- ordinar "open" or "hex" fails
- Via "browser" or "Recent files" works

"illegal activity"

This is a "windows" internal error message (you will have it en Francais
probablement )

XN 1.82.4 never (almost ?) generates this, think you get this problem in
1.90 fixed during alpha or beta developement

Yes, I mean "File" -> "Open", "File" -> "Open in Hex mode", CTL-O, CTL-H,
and the direct "Open" (having many possible symbols available) button
(supposed to display the directory) do not work.

Images are accessible only via "browser" or "recent files" (bypassing
the directory).

Strange, for me File/Open works. Someone with the same problem???

I have the same problem. Ctl-O doesn't work. I am using Win98SE (which I don't think is relevant).

Really, someone with the same problem on 2K or Xp??

[Olivier_G]

CTL-O does not work only or all other methods I mentioned also ?

It probably IS relevant ... since I have same bug on same

I updated to the new Alpha ... bug persists

[parsec]

Neither Ctrl-O nor File/Open works. If I double click on a graphics file it works fine. I have tried removing all extraneous programs with no effect. No problems with 1.82.4.

[DOS386]

Bug no longer occurs. Did you fix it in the Alpha 2 or 3 version ?
But I am on a different PC now.

According to NTOSKRNL_VXE this is fixed. -> Closed

@NTOSKRNL_VXE: If needed you can download 1.90 alpha 1 and try to reproduce this.

[DOS386]

It is fixed.
