            <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 <a
                href="http://digikam.org" target="_blank"
                moz-do-not-send="true">digikam.org</a> 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:part1.0bbw6xXP.SxSSlJIY@gmail.com" alt=""
                class=""></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?
