%%%This should be under Interface (it's late and I'm tired). There is an image attached.%%%

%%%Which file extensions do these images have? The file browser is set to show only images, perhaps this is a file extensions that is not recognized.%%%

%%%I have several different image file types .jpg, .png, .tga, etc... , but none of them got picked up. I was able to manually append the file name (and extension) to the file path and add them that way though.%%%

%%%Are you using any more modern features of the file system? (Junction points, Symbolic links?)

if you make a directory on the same drive and add some image, does it show?
C:\test\foo.jpg

If this works, can you try copy the files in the directory into C:\test and see if they show?

Can you zip the dir and extract elsewhere to see if it shows?

Is the directory local or is it a network drive?, so copy onto a local drive.

It could be for example - Text in the path uses some invalid encoding, Try find which directory name causes the problem.

Basically you need to trouble shoot the problem to see what causes them not to show.%%%

%%%Oh yep I am using some of the new file system features. I was able to find the files when I navigated directly from C:. What happened to the good old days when a directory was really a directory and not a fancy link to another directory? Is there someone currently working on implementing support for Junction points, and Symbolic links?%%%

%%%IIRC Andrea Weikert has some ideas/snippets for that, but not sure how far that had progressed. Assigning to her for further commenting.%%%

%%%Junction point support is on the todo list here:
