  • Fixed the following issues:

    • - Renaming or deleting a folder containing videos sometimes failed.

    • - Nikon Transfer 2 sometimes terminated while reading the file information from the camera.

    • - RAW pictures taken with some COOLPIX A1000 cameras could sometimes not be saved in JPEG format.
