I have just upgraded to Windows 7. We had all our photos in Windows Photo Gallery. Where are they? can we recover the Windows Photo Gallery?

I just installed Windows 7 and I can't find the pictures I had in Windows Photo Gallery.  Where are they?  Is there a way I can still use the Windows Photo Gallery?

Thanks for answer and sorry for not noticing that you have had so far.  Actually, I solved my problem by editing the registry and by associating file types .jpg and .jpeg image.  I think that the Viewer Windows Live Photo or other software that I installed messed up file associations and caused Media Center does not recognize files .jpg and .jpeg as an addition to the type library.

I changed the settings in the registry as follows:

1. under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT, navigate to the key named .jpeg
2 change the (default) string value so that the data field is "jpegfile" (without the "")
3. Add a new string value named: 'Content Type' and together the data field "image/JPEG" (once again without the "")
4. Add a new string value named: "Type perceived" and together the data in the field in 'image '.

Do the same steps above for the key under HHKEY_CLASSES_ROOT .jpg

I don't remember if I needed to restart the computer or not for the changes to take effect.  I solved this by trial and error because I remembered having to add the same entry in the Media Center in Vista type to get files .mp4 playing in the video library.
