XnView Software

Problem : "Not responding" when switch to browse mode depends on number of child folders in grandparent folder

for example , i'm viewing the image which path is E:\ParentFolder\ChildFolder\img.jpg
then i double click to switch to browse mode ( i want to sort images)
it seems that the time loading browse mode depends on the number of child folders of "grand parent folders" , in this case ,the "grand parent folders" is "E:\ParentFolder\"
if "ParentFolder" has many folders in it (about 1000) , it cause "not responding" issue in view child folder , although i only want to view only the "ChildFolder" not view 1000 folders in "ParentFolder"

if "ParentFolder" not has many folders in it, it works fine

Im using xnview latest version 0.98.4 on windows 10
update: bug also exist in latest version 0.99.0

Strange, if you go in E:\ParentFolder\ChildFolder, there is no check of ParentFolder
If you start XnView as browser in this folder, same delay?
