Hello

I'm really surprised but mogrify command does not work at all on Windows (8.1 / x64)

• I have a folder containing *.JPG files.
• I install ImageMagick-6.8.9-8-Q16-x64-dll.exe .
• I start a command line using administrator rights, and try mogrify -resize 1920x1200 *.JPG
• It throws an error : mogrify.exe : unable to open image *.JPG : Invalid argument @ error/blob.c/OpenBlob/2709

See the image :


When I try a unique file command (like mogrify -resize 1920x1200 DSC05300.JPG ) it works perfectly, so it's not a problem of rights or anything, just a problem of recognizing the "*" or navigating through the folder...
It's a really basic problem here. I think mogrify should really be tested.

Does it work if you use it in a folder with the name 'd:\test'?

No, same result

I cannot reproduce your problem on my Windows machine. Can you add '-debug all' to the beginning of your command and post the output inside a 'code' block here?

Happened to me when current dir name contained Cyrillic characters in it.

With the latest version of ImageMagick?

Heh. Actually, latest ImageMagick doesn't have this issue.
