% within path

Post by defchris »

I just found a serious bug when batch converting a bunch of pictures with xnView:

Watch out if there is a % character in either paths or filename of the pictures - if there is at least one such character, the images containing a % within the complete path string will be gone - deleted and not moved to recycle bin...

% is special character used as 'original filename', so right if filename has '%', a problem :-(
