    How have you tried to uninstall?

    What is going on?  Please report any message (s) completely, without paraphrasing.

    Did you use it to 'clean up' or 'fix' the registry?  If Yes, how long?  If this isn't the case, a long time ago, is there an "undo" function that allows you to get to the State of your computer before using Registry Mechanic?

    If it has not been long since you've used Registry Mechanic, (b) you have not installed or uninstalled all other applications, and (c) you have not disabled the system restore, use system restore to go back to a point before you used Registry Mechanic.  I would not use SR to return more than a day or three.

    The error comes from MS Windows Live Photo Gallery.

    First thing to do is to re-download and re-install from MS and see if this corrects the error. Here is the linkhttp://download.live.com/photogallery

    If this does not work, remove windows live photos from your PC and the problem should be fixed.

    Another thing, you might want to try uninstalling quicktime and reinstall quick time, this might work for some people.

    This bug seems to occur only on windows 7 64 x only opertating systems and I guess that this bug will be corrected in the next service pack of windows. »
