you means that browser is not in the folder of image when closing tab?
Do you have checked 'Settings>Interface>Select file in Browser..."?

But if press left Alt and enter, next close info, and next press enter, we will find ourselves in target folder )
This you can see here

I offer make so :
1) open file in folder 1 - In hidden mode, read the properties of the file
2) open file in folder 2 - In hidden mode, read the properties of the file
and so on ) then bug will be fixed )
I think, what need make automaticly read line and value Filepath , if I request properties XnView MP reading Filepath and that's why correctly open folder if I press enter
