  Photo Gallery can't open this picture because you do not have permission to the location of the file asscess RJ

  I recently started having the SAME problem. Windows Photo Viewer working wonder in the past months on the same exact images without any problems.

  I suspect that Microsoft update the code somewhere which pushed as an update - what is now the cause of the problem.

  As a diagnosis, I tried with the right button "open with...". "and chose the paint. The same file opened without any problem.

  All the pictures are generated for all images without problem.

  Still, Windows Photo Viewer cannot display ALL my image files. Paint has no problem.

  Similarly, right click 'open with... '. "and choose Microsoft Office 2010. Loading the image without any problems.

  If the original poster has the same success using other programs - then the problem is with the Windows Photo Viewer - Microsoft of not having it recognize permissions for the code or something.

  It's on Windows 7 Professional 64 - bit. Latest updates applied Microsoft.

  Hello
  Thank you for using the Microsoft Vista answers Forum.

  What is the file format of the images?

  All the pictures have the same symptoms?

  Disable the antivirus software on your computer and check if it works very well.

  Make sure you have all updates for your version of Vista.

  You can also try the new Windows Live Photo Gallery, as it has more features and should solve your problem.

• Error trying to open the photos scanned in the Windows Photo Gallery: Windows Photo Gallery can't open this photo, the format is not supported

  I scanned a few photos, but its entry in the adobe format, I wan't it in windows photo gallery, which will make

  I right click on the image, click on the Prog by default to choose, select windows photo gallery, but it did not open, he writes

  "Photo Gallery can't open this photo, the format is not supported.

  Your better off using paint to scan directly to, because for one, it has a way to change the types of files and two he has a check-in feature, more than anything the photo library has.

  All you have to do is open paint, click the blue button and click option of scanner or camera, follow the prompts.

• Photo Gallery can't open the photo because you are not allowed access to the location of the file

  Photo Gallery can't open the photo because you are not allowed access to the location of the file some of the image are open

  Click on the folder and change your permissions for it and all subfolders and files all rights and if necessary take hand the case (and maybe the parent folder or even its parent - and all of the subfolders and files) until you have the permission you need.  Here are the general procedures to help you:

  To view your permissions, right-click on the file/folder, click Properties, and check the Security tab.  Check the permissions you have by clicking on your user name (or group of users).  Here are the types of permissions, you may have: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/What-are-permissions.  You must be an administrator or owner to change the permissions (and sometimes, being an administrator or even an owner is not sufficient - there are ways to block access (even if a smart administrator knows these ways and can move them - but usually should not because they did not have access, usually for a very good reason).)  Here's how to change the permissions of folder under Vista: http://www.online-tech-tips.com/windows-vista/set-file-folder-permissions-vista/.  To add take and the issuance of right of permissions and ownership in the right click menu (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2009/05/21/take-and-grant-full-control-permissions-and-ownership-in-windows-7-or-vista-right-click-menu/.

  To resolve this problem with folders, appropriating the files or the drive (as an administrator) and give you all the rights.  Right-click on the folder/drive, click Properties, click the Security tab and click on advanced and then click the owner tab.  Click on edit, and then click the name of the person you want to give to the property (you may need to add if it is not there--or maybe yourself). If you want that it applies to subfolders and files in this folder/drive, then check the box to replace the owner of subcontainers and objects, and click OK.  Back and now there is a new owner for files and folders/player who can change the required permissions.  Here is more information on the ownership of a file or a folder: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/67717-take-ownership-file.html.  To add take ownership in the menu of the right click (which will make it faster to get once it is configured), see the following article: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/add-take-ownership-to-explorer-right-click-menu-in-vista/.

  Good luck and I hope this helps!

• "Photo Gallery can't open this photo because it is being edited in another program"

  whenever I have add tags to the photo above no tag, I can view is no longer the image. When I click it, I get this message, "Photo Gallery cannot open this picture because it is being edited in another program." I do not understand this because everything I've done is add a tag or two. I have not tried the image in a different way.

  my computer did not always do this; He has recently started to happen. Sometimes when I turned my computer off and then turn it back on, some of the pictures will be open, but not all of them.

  Anyone who can answer this question will be appreciated greatlly.

  ============================================
  Just a few ideas...

  If it is a recent issue,... it may be worth trying to do
  a restore of the system at a time before everything started.

  Using Windows 7 or Vista System Restore
  http://www.howtogeek.com/HOWTO/Windows-Vista/using-Windows-Vista-system-restore/

  If you run Windows Photo Gallery... it can
  be worth a try to download and install Windows Live
  Photo Gallery:

  (FWIW... it's always a good idea to create a system)
  Restore point before installing software or updates)

  Download Windows live Photo Gallery
  http://explore.live.com/Windows-Live-Photo-Gallery
  (There are other applications included in the download...
  Uncheck the ones you don't want)

  And... no guarantee... but Microsoft following
  'Fix' might be worth a try:

• Photo Gallery can't open this photo or video. The file format is not supported or you do not have the latest updates of photo gallery

  Hello

  A very complicated problem. that I ran.

  I created a panorama with Photoshop CS5 (running Windows Vista).  There is a number of images BULLIES that have been sewn together using Psalm I flattened the image and saved in the jpg format.  This jpg image can be read by Windows Photo Gallery application

  I want to create a larger image (72 "long) to print.  I went back to the PSD file and increased the size of the image in increments of 10% ~ 49 to 72 long.  Then, I saved this image to jpg (same options jpg).  As this image is corrupted when I try to see in Vista (Windows Photo Gallery).  It cannot be read in Microsoft Paint either.

  In the end, I need to send this image to get printed but I fear that it is corrupt.   I tried 3 different computers to Windows Vista (laptop computers for desktop computers) and the corrupt message is the same

  What is strange, is that Photoshop can open the jpg image.  Apple Image Viewer can open the image and my laptop with Windows 7 can read the image.

  So I don't know if the image is corrupted or if it is a problem with vista or photo gallery

  I also tried to open with Microsoft Paint and it doesn't work.

  Thank you

  When I double click on an image file on the desktop, nothing happens.  When I right-click and choose Preview, it does nothing. also, if I choose open with: Windows Photo Gallery, nothing.

  I can add pictures in a folder, start Windows Photo Gallery and view them.
