%%%Works fine on Win7 x64. 2.58a and current.

What OS are you using?
What Blender version?
Where did you try to save it?
Does it happen without Show Thumbnails in User Preferences?
Did you try to save image in Short List view mode?

%%%Blender Version: Blender 2.58a
OS: Win32 Home Premium

Not "Short List" view, not "Long List" view but "Thumbnail View". When in Thumbnail view and you try to save image, the bug happens. It doesn't matter where you save.

As soon as you disable Show Thumbnails in User Preferences everything works fine.%%%

%%%Can't confirm on Win 7 x64 with latest SVN. I only get this print inside the console, but most likely not related. "<!> event has invalid window"

%%%Likely this is related to Blender getting stuck making the thumbnail of a specific image file in a folder that you browse through. To fix such an issue we'd need to have that image file to test here, if you can find which one it is.%%%

%%%When I save, I save to the Desktop (Windows 7 SP1). No existing image item found at all. Is it perhaps some icon item on Windows desktop like recycle bin, etc?%%%

%%%I don't think icons will be loaded by Blender, so that should not be the issue. It's not only the folder you actually save to that matters, also in any folder that you clicked through it will show thumbnails. I.e. here it opens C:\ by default, so it will start loading thumbnails for that first, and then if you open another folder it does for that one, etc.%%%

%%%Hi Sinan,

I tried as well today on Windows Vista and couldn't reproduce. Can you test with the latest official Blender 2.59 version from Blender.org?

Thanks,
Andrea

%%%That's what I'm using now, the official Blender 2.59 from Blender.org.

Actually, I just tried it now, and it works. Maybe it had to do with a plugin I had installed. %%%
