Windows: Problem with folder redirection (related to UNC)
Hey,
I have GIMP installed on a Windows Terminalserver / RDS Host with folder redirection activated for the users working on the system. When using Open, Save or Export from the menu and choosing one of the folders which are redirected, GIMP hangs ("not responding") for about 1 minute before showing the content of the folder or the save dialog.
I traced the issue with procmon and it seems like when selecting a folder, GIMP goes up the folder path to the root folder and probably tries to read some properties from the root folder which fails because the root is not a folder, but an unc path.
