2.  Rotate an image
3.  Close the Gwenview

Gwenview does not ask to save changes if it can't do so for any picture.

It could instead also ask to save changed pictures in a different folder, optionally keeping the folder structure.

Thank you for the bug report. Unfortunately we were not able to get to it yet. Can we ask you to please check if this is still an issue with Gwenview 25.08.0?
