1.11.6 Folder Deletion Issue

Hello,

My operating system is Windows 11, and I’m using the portable version.

In the new version 1.11.6, when deleting folders from the left-hand pane, some folders reappear shortly after being deleted.

This issue also occurred in previous versions.

I did some testing by deleting folders from the left pane and counting them as I went.

When I was about to delete the 13th folder, 11 of the folders suddenly reappeared in the list. This is really... quite amazing. Only one folder actually ended up in the Recycle Bin.

XnView MP is really great, but because of this issue, I’m still using FastStone Image Viewer.

One drawback of FastStone is that when deleting a folder from the left pane, you can’t simply press the Delete key. You have to right-click the folder and then click Delete.

If this issue were fixed, I think XnView MP could directly replace software such as FastStone and ACDSee.
