Hidden OS software
"PAB" <beckroid[ at ]pacbell.net> 04.07.2007 18:41:59
This may be the wrong place to ask, but have not been able to get an answer.
Apparently the Windows Photo Gallery is part of the operating system, and
does not appear in the "Uninstall and change programs".
Last week I changed a folder in another graphics program, "Irfanview" and
now when opening Windows Photo Gallery the message "Cannot find folder"
appears with the choices of "Find Folder" or "remove folder" or "cancel" -
but before I can click on any choice the program freezes and needs to stop.
What can be done in this situation. Now nothing that used Windows photo
gallery gets the photo icon as happened until now.
This is a new computer with Home Premium preinstalled.
Thanks for any help or direct me to the correct site.
