It does say version 3.90, but the download itself is named iview385.exe and
is the same size as
version 3.85 I downloaded awhile ago.

That's very odd. The file I downloaded was named iview390.exe
Maybe the server that you chose from the Tucows list hadn't been
updated yet. This server has the 3.90 version for sure and it's fast:

What's New in This Release:

· - Improved Contact Sheet option

Still does not allow the option of selecting all images in a folder plus any
subfolders as far as I can see.
With the Contact Sheet being automatically as tall as required for all to
fit on the one sheet.
Without having to define the total number of images.
Thus being very useful for an index of archived images.
Great pity.

This link gets you nothing . . .

To be honest, I didn't try out that link as I just copied and pasted
the release notice. If you look at the bottom of the IrfanView page at
Tucows you will see

"Also Available:
# Irfan View Plug-ins"

You can download it there.

 

[monkeyman]

all the download links show version 3.85 ,not 3.90 ?

That is quite the mystery. Some people have no problem and others get
what you did. I have no explanation for it. So, I'm going to post a
link to the Softpedia download as they have the file cached on their
own server and maybe that will be less problematic.

Also

http://tds.tucows.com/files2/iview390.exe

is a good link for the main install of IrfanView, and

http://tds.tucows.com/files3/IrfanView-all_plugins.exe

is a good link for an EXE containing all the plugins for IrfanView.

Thank goodness! I \hated\ hitting that instead of Ctrl-A.
