Usually I use the viewer in fullscreen mode. I don't use the xnViewMp browser and open image files directly from my file manager switching to the next or previous image with mouse scroll or PgUp-PgDn. To close the viewer I press ESC twice (to exit fullscreen and then to close the viewer window).xnview wrote:when using the browser? viewer?vladsol wrote:I have the same problem with an infinite background process.

Yes, it helps. I can't repeat the situation with the infinite background process if "read one image ahead" option is disabled. But the problem appears again if I turn the option back. Thank you!xnview wrote:could you try to disabled settings>Misc>View>Read one image ahead?
Most probably because "read one image ahead" spawns a separate thread which tries to read the image. This thread isn't cleared when the application closes and the thread remains in an infinite loop waiting from a command which will never come anymore from his (dead) master.vladsol wrote:Yes, it helps.

No, I haven't. The folder contains some "*.png" files only. File example: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/251 ... xample.pngxnview wrote:do you have RAW files in the folder?
