1. You have image "X". Delete it.
2. You select and adjust image "Y" (a completly different image) and "save as" or "export" with the name "X" (in the same folder as the old one).
3. The thumbnail of the new "X" will be the old thumbnail.
I presume that it's a cache-thing, to "rebuild thumbnails" corrects the false thumbnail. Still it is bad behaviour, XnView shouldn't use the old thumbnail for the new file. Is it possible to fix this?

Tried with A2 on another computer, could not reproduce with "save as", but could reproduce with "export".ckit wrote:I cannot reproduce this bug.
Then I downloaded latest B3 and the problem occurs again, when using export to test this.
EDIT: Hm... when repeating the test many times, it does not always occur (but mostly it does). First time I noticed when uploading new photos from a digital camera, but all thumbnails were old ones from a previous session. Took quite some time to discover what the problem was
