1.96.1: Crash deleting a hidden file
1) Let there be at least two image files: one hidden and one normal
2) Open the hidden one with xnview
3) delete it with DEL button
4) the program crashes:
XnView for Windows has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
AppName: xnview.exe AppVer: 1.91.0.0 ModName: xnview.exe
ModVer: 1.91.0.0 Offset: 000ae115
Windows XP SP2, XnView 1.96.1
P.S. I'm wondering why "File version" is 1.91.0.0 while Help/About says 1.96.1 ...

Re: Crash deleting a hidden file (1.96.1)
XnView is started in edit mode or in fullscreen?
Which OS?
Which OS?

No bug here


• I cannot reproduce that issue. I tested a hidden file with which I started XnView in Total Commander
via D&D on its icon, so in normal “View”.
- I tested too from the browser >> Select its thumbnail >> Remove, no problem, no crash.
- In both cases, the hidden file is deleted.
- In “View”, I get the next file displayed (I have set this option).
- Win XP-Pro SP1 - XnView 1.91.6

Hi Chris !

Ticked---


• That box IS ticked here, it doesn't cause any crash (and also I delete directly, not to the Recycle Bin)…Could you try to disable option/view/misc/Read ahead?
