1.9.8 Move operation does not remove video from source
Posted: Sat Dec 13, 2025 10:31 pm
XnView: MP 1.9.8 – 64 bit
OS: Windows 11 – 64 bit
Short description:
The application cannot move a video file when it is selected in the file browser, regardless of whether autoplay is enabled or disabled:
move operation copies video files but does not remove them from source
Effect:
The user is unable to reorganize or manage video files using the Move command. Video files remain locked or unmovable while selected, forcing the user to use external tools to delete them.
To reproduce:
1. Open a folder containing one or more video files.
2. Select a video file in the browser (autoplay enabled or disabled).
3. ctrl + M to try to move the video selected.
Actual behaviour (bug):
The video file cannot be moved while it is selected.
This happens both with autoplay enabled and disabled.
Error message: "Cannot remove source" is shown.
Expected behaviour:
A video file should be movable,
Thank you in advance!
Love XnView!
