Misleading error statement - dfstudios - 03-16-2016
I've just had a slight issue when trying to load an SCP image into the Disk Archiver where I get an error message that the file type is not recognised. I eventually found out that the cause of the error was because I had inadvertently left the file open in WinUAE. I think a bit more clarity here as to why the file could not be opened instead of the file type is not recognised would be helpful.
Kind regards,
Francis

That error message is passed in by Windows, I just re-print it in the dialogue box. I guess I can look at doing some type of sanity check.

Thanks, that would really be helpful.
I initially thought that the SCP file was corrupt before realising why it was happening.
Kind regards,
