If a movie has subtitles and I delete the movie in MovPic in MP, the subtitles remain in the directory. Is this a settings problem?

    Are the other files in a separate folder for this movie only, or are there other movies in the same directory?

    The movies and the subtitles are in the same folder. Some other movies are in this folder too. More movies are in other folders and other drives.

    I do not believe MovPic has support for this to delete filename.nfo/ srt/idx/sub/etc.

    The rename system does has support for these 'secondary files', but this was added after the GUI delete system. Perhaps @ltfearme can re-use code from the rename system to add support for this and add a seperate advanced setting to have the ability to delete secondary files. Of course he's busy on a gazillion other things, so not sure if this is one of those easier said than done things.

    I noticed there's an updated Visual C++ Runtime (14.50.35710), maybe try to reinstall the runtimes? That's what fixed the issue when I tried 1.38.1
