@smaragdus thing is I found that even paths with no Unicode resulted in the same error so not sure what it is (didn't try Midas' suggestion however). The files themselves were named 0001.bmp, and onward, about 400 files in all, and were being converted to PNG, fwiw.
v1.2
I tested it and ImageBatch worked for me under Windows 8 x64. It threw error messages only when I tried to add folders and files with Unicode names- it could not process them because ImageBatch does not support Unicode. It is very unlikely that this program will ever be updated.

Always nice to have options, innit? :D
v1.2
@Midas nope, though I moved on and ended up using Faststone Photo Resizer instead which did what I needed :)

@Specular: just guessing here but have you tried running with admin privileges?
v1.2
All I get is an error ('Failed to read file') when the program attempts to process the directory on Windows 8.1. The program then exits. The next time I even just loaded the directory it crashed the program.
v1.2

@Specular
I ran ImageBatch as administrator.
Anyway, FastStone Photo Resizer and XnConvert are more powerful and I guess they should work better.
For conversion and resizing for years I have been using mainly FastStone Photo Resizer (I prefer version 3.5 which has skins which were removed in later versions).
