REQ - Exclude USB Devices for 4in1 Folders

Post by ckit »

We need a option to disable use of the 4in1 folders for "USB Devices" like digital camera's or usb drives. I've that after I move all my pictures off the camera and then replace those pictures with newer pictures, XnView still remembers the old pictures for the 4in1 folder!

This needs to be fixed!

There's no problem with folders on fixed disks, only with USB Drives and Cameras.
