1.5.3 64bits (Aug 11 2023)
Windows 10 Pro x64
When viewing photos xnView tries to open files without extension.

How to reproduce:
create a folder with images and with empty files without extensions
open image from windows explorer
press next/previous file until you encounter blank file
XnView will try to read it.

Expected behavior: XnView ignores them.

Current custom filter settings:

My starting mode is in «Viewer»
I created an empty file without extension called test in powershell with

Code: Select all

New-Item test

my test folder looks like this:

Code: Select all

ls -Name
Hannah Hays - Adventure Time Cover.mp3
proof_CHB.pdf
test
test.epub
test.mkv
test.mp4
test.test
test.xls
test1.jpg
test2.jpg

Xnview ignores everything like it should except only for filenames without extension. I don't use browser in xnview and do not open from it. I use xnview in viewer mode and open files from explorer with doubleclicking on them and in this test folder xnview counts that there are 3 files in this folder «test1.jpg», «test2.jpg» and «test».
