Hi. I had this feeling that it would be hard to reproduce on another W7 computer. I use 32 bit windows (forgot to say).

I also have admin rights on that computer.

I'm trying to answer the best I can:

a - on a network drive. Cannot remembered if I have tried with a local drive.
b - Have tried several locations, both on network drive and on local drive.
c - D:\Programmer\Inkscape (compressed version, not installed)
d - It seems to happen with all jpg files. I'm not completely sure wheter it's a problem with png's too.

It's on a work-computer, and I cannot effort using much time to test. I can double chechk tomorrow at work if I get time for it.

First time this happens I was using r10638 (I think). Before that time, this failure never happens.
After it happends first time, this failure was around for all nightly builds of Inkscape.
I also tested r10414 (that I've considering being a rater stable version), but that too failed - hang when saved and picture file was linked in.

It's just like if a "failure-switch for all beta versions" was turned on that day. Like everybody else - I haven't done anything that should "activate" this failure.

My bet is that there must be a setting somewhere that Inkscape "doesn't like". So is it to find the settings folder on W7.
