PSPP X4: A file will not go away at batch conversion

[eL_PuSHeR]

Hello again.

Whenever I open the batch conversion window a file always appears in the main file list window; I have to manually remove it (pressing clear) before using the browse button. This is annoying. Can anyone confirm?

What window appears? Is it an error window or something else?

Yes, I see what you mean. Even though I have the Edit screen empty, when I open Batch Process the dialogue box has a file already listed though I have not yet chosen a file I want to put there myself. See photo below. Moreover, it is the file either selected for display in the Manage page, or else by default the first photo in the selected directory under Navigation. In addition, after you use the clear button and then close the dialogue box without using it, then reopen it, the file name returns.

Since I don't do batch conversions -- as yet at any rate -- this is not a biggie for me. But I can imagine it would get annoying if the process were used regularly.

Agreed. I use batch conversion a lot. Not a biggie as you say but annoying nonetheless.
