Research direction
Reproduce the behavior in ImageGlass 10.0.6.906 on Windows 11 by viewing an image and moving it out of its directory. Compare the result with v9, then trace the image-file move handling and folder navigation to identify why the viewer reaches a blank background; done means it advances to the next image as before.
