XnView Software

Hi

I would love to run xnview from a USB stick that has the image files on it too, so that I can use my image archive on any PC I find myself at.

I installed xnview from Portableapps.com and set up a few images with categories and all works fine on the original PC. When I plug the USB stick into a second PC, the thumbnails are blank and pictures will not load from the previously set up categories. It looks like xnview is trying to look at the drive letter that was assigned to the USB stick on the original PC (F:) - but the second PC has given the USB stick a different drive letter (L:).

Is it possible for me to configure xnview to work self contained, across different PCs? Is there a setting to automatically update the stored drive letter to the current one assigned to the USB stick, maybe based on the volume name? Or can relative file paths be used?

Thanks!

You can change path used in option/Integration>Other files

Hi,

please compare here:

I'd appreceate if this would be changed to relative paths like for example in the sld-files.
