1) I use XnViewMP Version 0.76.1 x64 (Oct 23 2015).
2) Click any file in a folder that is located inside the "C:\Documents and Settings\".
3) Got a message: "File not found!".
Note: Folder "C:\Documents and Settings\" contains an additional element, which prohibits access rights "folder / read data" for users "ALL" only in this folder. Somehow, it becomes a system for security purposes.
In the folder "C:\Documents and Settings" subfolder and it

Re: In the folder "C:\Documents and Settings" subfolder and
That is an XP folder (and older OS) - I do not think the recent versions of MP run under XP.
On newer systems you should never be accessing files through this name. It is only a junction point to C:\Users to help old programs that have it compiled into a deeper path.
You cannot treat is as the destination folder - you need to use C:\Users.

Re: In the folder "C:\Documents and Settings" subfolder and
The fact is that every folder having the security settings, is not only unsuitable for viewing program XnViewMP, but also delays the opening of the program, if for some reason XnView is trying to work with the child folders.
In this case, the strange thing is that the built-in browser program normally opens to view the files in the test folder, but can not open an associated file system by clicking on the system Explorer.
For example, FastStone Image Viever under the same conditions normally works.
However, even more strange that the error "File Not Found" appears for a short file name, for example to "123456789012345678901.jpg". I should add one more letter (eg, "1234567890123456789012.jpg"), the program does not give an error, but instead of trying unsuccessfully to open the file the parent folder, which has the right to prohibit.
This raises questions about the safety of the program:
why she scanned the parent folder?

Re: In the folder "C:\Documents and Settings" subfolder and
I don't think that is relevant. Basically, in Vista or later, you should never choose anything that contains "C:\documents and settings".
Junction points are a bit weird and give odd results depending on which program you use.
For example under Win 7, Windows File explorer says "access denied"
command.exe allows you to cd to it, but a dir list shows nothing, so it has not used the junction point as expected.
