    <p>Hello Gilles,<br>
    </p>
    <p><br>
    </p>
    <p>Congrats on the new DK 8.3 release! And thank you so much for
      your awesome work with Digikam!</p>
    <p><br>
    </p>
    <p>I was eager to try it out in the hope that this issue would be
      fixed.</p>
    <p>I downloaded DK 8.3 installer on digikam.org and installed it in
      Windows 10.</p>
    <p>When I opened DK, I got no errors. I was prompted to download the
      face recognition files and did so. Then I went into an album and
      tried opening a photo. I could not open the photos. I just get
      this message: <img src="cid:part1.TGfd6VZc.Nhh64Ecz@gmail.com"
        alt=""></p>
    <p>This is the same error as I reported in this thread on
      2023-12-06.</p>
    <p>It is my understanding that you confirmed this as a bug in 8.2 on
      Windows in message from 2023-12-06 15:02.</p>
    <p>In message from 2023-12-06 16:10 you seem to state that the issue
      is related to how DK is compiled and that this would be fixed in
      DK 8.3.</p>
    <p><br>
    </p>
    <p>Was this not fixed afterall? Or do I have some other problem on
      my local system? Or do I need to do something in order to actually
      make the new fix work?</p>
    <p>Really looking forward to hearing from you as I have abstained
      from using DK on Windows since december 2023.<br>

                                  <pre>Hi,


After upgrading to DK 8.2, I no longer can open any photos in my collection.

The thumbnails in albums show up fine. But when I doubleclick, I get
this popup:


This is appearently for all images.

If I right click and click Open in File Manager, nothing happens. So DK
seemingly cannot see the image location.

However, if I manually browse my filemanager to this location it opens
just fine.

This is DK on Windows 10.

Photos are stored on a SMB share.

Why would DK suddenly not be able to see the images?
