Cannot open images after upgrade to DK8.2

Thanks for clearing this up!
I clicked X and closed DK.
My DB files comsumes approximately the same amount of disk space, so I 
think they're OK.

Am I correct in understanding that this is indeed a bug that I 
encountered - and as such not a local problem in my end.
As a workaround, should I uninstall DK 8.2 and install DK 8.1?
Would you expect to release a fixed version of DK? Or would I have to 
wait for DK 8.3?

BR
Thomas
