Wow, disabling that (I needed to do it 3 times until it was accepted...)
works. Now disk images load.

No.

But launching x64 from the console rather than clicking the icon showed
an error message that it cannot load a keymap file. I manually loaded it
and now it works.

I assume pointing the "working directory" to where I have the C64 images
was a mistake. I will play with it to see to solve other issues.

Thanks Greg for pointing me into the right direction. :-)

All US guys have a nice 4th of July!
