Reported v4.42 (32-bit) IrfanView freezes while scrolling through files

[at4na5]

Hello.

Just recently I started using IrfanView on a Windows 10 computer and it's been a pleasure, except for this small bug that occurs every now and then.
Whenever I am scrolling through a folder with images and videos the program just stops responding and the "endless hourglass" appears. I've noticed it usually happens when I scroll from an image to a video or the other way around.
I read about this issue in other posts but there it wasn't exactly the same since the situations at which it occurred were different from mine.

Looking forward to finding the solution.

I doubt if this is a bug. It takes time to load large files. Use the Setting in Properties, Extensions to load specific file types when browsing.
