    Requested Option to disable File-Open Error Message

    Hi,

    About 9 months ago I accidentally deleted most of my picture/photo folder (~978MB in ~9,000 files). I used several data-recovery apps to try to get back as many of them as possible, but obviously due to the nature of data-recovery, it was somewhat hit-and-miss so now I have a lot of corrupt files.

    Anyway, as I make my way through thousands of files, many of which are not even real picture files, I am getting quite frustrated by having to constantly move my arms back and forth to dismiss the error message that IrfanView displays for each and every corrupt file: Can’t read file header! / Unknown file format or file not found!. I checked the options, but there does not seem to be a way to disable it. It would be extremely useful if there was an option to disable the dialog (and perhaps even the beep).

    Thanks a lot.
Working...
