Problem is not reproducible here with 7.4.0 release.

Please install digiKam 7.4.0 for Windows and try again.

OK That's solved the problem, many thanks for prompt reply.
I did check the release notes but didn't find a match.
Actually while doing the install I re-imported the faces library. It might be that was the issue too?

In digiKam-7.2.0 the face models were still included in the installer and had to be reinstalled with each new version. Now they are downloaded once and remain on the computer even after an update and the installers are much smaller.
