Hello. I have been user of IrfanView for a long time (win10 btw), but some update has really messed up something with the way my favourite image viewer works on my PC, and I have no idea what to do, no matter how many times I reinstall it or try to follow general FAQs. So, I am posting here, kindly asking somebody to help.
The problem is really bizarre. So, let's say I have a folder of 1000 photos, from a mobile phone which I connect to my PC. I sort them by date in the file explorer. I also set IrfanView to sort by date (sort file list -> by exif date). And then, no matter what photo do I choose, when I press arrow keys IrfanView only cycles through random very few of them in a folder of like 1000. Sometimes it's random 5, sometimes it's random 8, sometimes it's random 7 of those images, and I cannot view more of them, it says the folder has ended. That's seriously it, the entire problem, and I couldn't find it described anywhere. Literally all photos in the folder are in .jpg format and can be individually opened in Irfanview - but I can't scroll through all of them using arrow keys, because of the aforementioned mechanism.
So, uhh, does anybody have any idea what's wrong and how to fix this, so I can just go view all photos from my folder in a row, by date, by pressing arrow keys?
