Created attachment 171540 [details] Error message SUMMARY When launching KDiff3 from the command line with files specified KDiff3 shows an error saying the 2nd file failed with an Unknown error. This happens when doing both a 2 way and a 3 diff. If I click ok to dismiss the error the next dialog box is pre-populated with the path of the files from the command line. If I click ok the files open correctly. I tested in 1.11.2 but I found this thread (https://github.com/ScoopInstaller/Extras/issues/13303) describing the same error in 1.11.0. Downgrading to 1.10.7 resolves the issue STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Call KDif3 from the command line with files specified This is the command I ran for testing. All 3 files exist and are simple text files with a single line kdiff3.exe C:\Tmp\C.txt C:\Tmp\A.txt C:\Tmp\B.txt OBSERVED RESULT KDiff3 throw an error opening the 2nd file EXPECTED RESULT KDiff3 to open without error
