XnView Software

I cannot open files by selecting them and choose "open all selected" in the context menu. I am using version 1.80.1. Am I doing something wrong?

What's happened?

Hello!
- If you mean : from a board of thumb-nails, that works like a charm here from the local menu.
- The first image is displayed in "View", you must choose : Window Menu >> Tile ( >>Tile H or V) or "Cascade" to watch all selected pics on the same screen…

Kind regards,

No, that doesn't work with me. Using Open all selected in the right click menu doesn't do anything, I can only use Open to open the item selected first. Using Tile in the Window menu only opens the already opened items in windows.

I reinstalled XnView with a new downloaded setup file, but it still doesn't work. Should I delete the first installation before reinstalling? I'd rather not, I have customized a lot, but if you don't experience any problem with this, it might solve the problem.

Which system do you have? Could you send me your .ini file?

Ok, the problem is with UseShellToOpen

OK... Is there something I can do about that? Or is it something you can fix?

Unset "Use shell open", and i'll fix it

I'll do so next week, when I can also use my other PC, which has the same problem. I'll send both ini-files.

Thank you much for your assistance!

Just unchecking "Use Shell To Open" did the job.

Great Pierre, thanks!
