It started with 20.8 and I just updated to the latest with the same error.

Re: error 67 snf thumbnails
The error means that XY has more than 512 files open at once, which is of course nonsense. From looking at the related code I cannot understand how this message can come up.
1) Do you get this in every folder or just a particular one?
2) This is so weird, have you already tried a Windows reboot?

Re: error 67 snf thumbnails
So we have 2 large folders with many sub folders.
D:\unedited
And
D:\working
The unedited seems to be ok but the working is not.
Yes I have done a restart
Thanks for your help.

Re: error 67 snf thumbnails
And working contains all normal JPG images?

Re: error 67 snf thumbnails
Working is a duplicate copy of unedited which we later edit and reduce sizes etc
The only other odd behaviour has been that it takes a long tome to update thumbnails if moving even one image.

Re: error 67 snf thumbnails
Yes sorry - all normal jpg. Never any raw - straight out of the camera.

Re: error 67 snf thumbnails
Totally weird. Blank stare.
Might be just one weird file. Split them in two bunches, and see what happens with each.

Re: error 67 snf thumbnails
Just curious about the "working" folder. Is this issue occurring on this "working" folder immediately after after copying the image files from the "unedited" folder before any editing takes place or are you having this issue with either some amount of the "jpgs" or all the images have been edited? In other words, you should eliminate if it's possible that the JPG editing program may be introducing the cause for error in the jpeg files themselves. Possibly try a different editor if that's the case.

Re: error 67 snf thumbnails
No editing done on them but now come to think about it I moved them directly there from a network location. I’ll have a look at this tonight.
Thanks very much for the help and suggestions.

Re: error 67 snf thumbnails
Well figured it out and thought you might want to know. I keep all of my thumbnails on a USB stick. I guess the stick was failing. I changed the thumbnail location to my main ssd and it’s perfect again.
Here’s a technical question - when you move an image from one folder to another in xyplorer does it do anything to the file in terms of reading and rewriting or is it just changing a pointer in the database. I know that USB drives and SSDs have a finite number of writes. That’s why I originally put it on a USB. Am I endangering the life of my main ssd by putting the thumbs there?
Thanks very much.

Re: error 67 snf thumbnails
If you change the location of the actual image file(s), the thumbnail cache does have to change. The thumbnail cache file names are the hash of the image folder location*thumbnail size. So the thumbnail cache for the images in folder, "H:\Photos\Ireland Trip 2013 \2013-07-01" in a thumbnail size of "240x240" would be "2d8ad0cd81dfb2db251fc3797820b4aa.dat2" which is the hash of "H:\Pictures\Ireland Trip 2013\2013-07-01\*240x240".
The actual image files shouldn't change but its attributes associated with each file like accessed time, or modified date, etc. may change depending on copy/move options used.
I keep my thumbnails on my SSD and the images themselves on disk drives. I wouldn't worry too much about lifetime on SSDs.
