When in the View window:
If you are viewing the last file in the directory, the 'Next File' icon is greyed showing that there are no more files to see, but if you are looking at the first file in the directory, the 'Previous File' icon is not greyed.
As I said in the subject, this is only a minor flaw.
'Previous file' not disabled

I have worked out what the problem is and it still occurs in the beta version.
If the filter is set to show all files, and the first file in a folder is not a recognised (viewable) format, then ...
In the View window, when looking at the first viewable file , the 'Previous' icon in the toolbar will not be greyed (because XnView knows that there is a previous file even though it cannot be viewed).
This also happens with the last file. If the last file is not viewable, and you are looking at the second last file that is viewable, the 'Next' icon is not greyed.
I wouldn't call this a bug really, but it is not intuitive to have a button indicating that there is a 'next' or 'previous' file to view that you can't view.
