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
