XnView won't open a FAT disk

Post by Pongo »

My Windows XP Pro has a FAT disk. XnView can open any disk in tree view, but not the FAT disk. Is that normal, or do I have a problem? Do I have to move my pics off of the FAT disk to see them in XnView? I'm using XnView version 1.90.3

Strange, no problem with other programs?

Hello, sorry for the delay...
Ok, found the problem. For some reason the attributes of the folders were checked as "hidden." I restored the directories to being "archive" and now XnView can see the FAT 32 disk just fine.
