Not quite what you want but having found the directory turn off
'Directory tree' leave 'Most recent directories' on. Close IrfanView.
Open IrfanView, go to thumbnails, you'll have a 'blank' directory line at the
top, click on the drop down icon at the end and there should be listed your
directory.

May I reply with a question, please. When I bring up an image with
Irfanview, it always comes up at mmaximum + zoom, requiring me to
manually zoom it down to see the full image. Irfan told me to set it at
1:1, but it was already set at 1:1. Is there any way to reset my
Irfanview so that an image comes up in full frame?
Thank you.

It worked. Thank you very much.
