Viewer hangs/crashes by PDF

[xntest]

Hello

I use the viewer from XnView since some weeks. Sometimes it hangs/crashes when I open the viewer (strg+B).

I figured out that the viewer always hangs when there is a pdf-document in the active directory.
In that case XnView is not responding and I must close it.
When I move the pdf out of the directory XnView works well.

It happens with an old version from 2007 and with the actual version 1.97.8.


Is it a bug or a feature?

Are the PDF-XChange shell extensions installed on your system?

• XnView 1.97.8 browser crashes with some PDF files.

Thank you.
Yes I had installed it.
I have uninstalled it and now XnView works fine in browser mode.

Is it possible to let show XP SP3 pdf-thumbs without hanging XnView?
