hi^^
there is an annoying bug when deleting the only file of a directory (and with the option "delete file goes next") : xnview is blocked in an infinite loop !
also when the deleted file is the last one, xnview stay on that file after the action instead of goes back to the previous file

Couldn't reproduce this one. What are the exact steps? Do you delete in browser moder or in image view mode?

Confirmed, could reproduce this one easily. When deleting in image view mode the deleted image remains displayed. When pressing delete again, the message "Error deleting file or folder".

my bad, it's little more complicated :p
you need two files and you must open the second file first (=image view mode), delete him and go back to the previous file, then delete him too
if it's not clear, I have made a little video :

Thank you for the detailed description and the video. Performing the same steps I have no problem. I guess that there's a combintation of settings which cause the problem. In the video one can see that XnView does NOT switch to the next image file when deleting the first image.
Could you please exit XnView, temporarily rename your xnview.ini file, and try again?

because it's the second (and last) image file (=b.jpg, the first is a.jpg)
you must first open the second image file in alphabetical order

I can't reproduce, and if i open the second file, delete it, xnview loads the first one
