My Windows 7 desktop suffers the same error pop-ups.

I don't get the pop-ups if I tick the "Remove file information (EXIF, IPTC)" box in the save dialog.

Maybe it's something to do with the Seagate drives.

If you do think of a reason for the behaviour I would be very interested and to hear, and thankfull.

I haven't explored what, if any  consequences flow from the error.

In the past and again more recently I have submitted bug reports and pretty much the same question to the support address, but didn't get any response. I gather the developers are pretty busy and so I didn't press the matter further. Then I thought I would try to find a solution within the forum after not finding any reference to the problem from various searches.

Thanks for the reply.

I used Windows 10 system cleanup to try and get rid of unused and redundant files. It didn't help.

I don't normally alter the metadata, and I work exclusively with simple .jpg files.

In the past, the occurrence always annoyed me, but I just ignored it and kept going with whatever I was doing.

I explored the problem a little more, just now. The error pops up every time I save a file, or save as. However, I hadn't realized that it only occurred when working on/saving files that are on my home network storage devices. That's the location where all the raw .jpg file are initially stored, and where all my project files are stored.

The error doesn't seem to pop up when saving to a USB thumb drive or to the C: drive.

I haven't noticed or experienced any other weirdness reading and writing files to the network drive in any other software.

Every time I same a file within Thumbs V 10 SP1 I get the pop-up message "TPv70BB.tmp.jpg : Unable to write XMP information to file, Error #00000009 CreateTempFile : Can't find unique name. Message <5751*6>"

The files seem to save OK, although I don't know what has gone missing from the header, if anything.

It's more of a nuisance and a worry that anything else, but does anybody else get this message and/or know how to prevent it recurring???

Can Thumbs see and work with files stored on network drives that are using Microsoft Distributed File Services - or do the files all have to be on conventional network or local drives?

I looked around the various file and directory settings to see if there was a setting for hiding network drives. Everything that looked remotely related such as network drives was ticked to be viewed, including hidden files.

I did try a repair on the new build. That didn't help.

When I reinstalled the older March build the network drives appeared OK.

At the time I was on the wireless network, but the old build worked at that time.

I have reinstalled build 3924 and the network drives are visible again. That will have to do for the moment.

I am running Windows 7 Home Premium

Just installed the new build. I cannot see my network drives anymore. Oops!
