Bad news, if your analysis is correct, we might encounter the same problem in other parts of the code as well. I don't have easy access to qt5 to test. Quick check says we use is FileEmpty also in: Buffer.cpp: enable = (d->preview_file_).exists() && !(d->preview_file_).isFileEmpty(); LaTeX.cpp: rerun = idxfile.exists() && idxfile.isFileEmpty(); LaTeX.cpp: if (head.haschanged(nlofile) || (nlofile.exists() && nlofile.isFileEmpty())) Pavel
