pictures in Windows Photo Viewer disappear after simple rotation. Help!

I used for years Windows Photo Viewer to display and rotate the photos uploaded to my computer.  Recently, I noticed that if I turn and switch to another image (just like I always did), one that I shot saved says he then went to the folder.  When I get on my computer, it appears that it is in the correct file, but when I go in the file, it isn't here.  Also, if I try to save back to the file from another source, it asks if I want to replace the existing file.  Help please!

The files may be hidden.  Might be interesting to try
Change the following setting and maybe photos
Re - appears.

Windows XP: Show hidden files

Reach... Control Panel / folder Options / View tab.
... To check "Show the hidden files and folders" / apply / OK.

Windows Vista - Show hidden files
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/Show-hidden-files

Windows 7 - show hidden files
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/show-hidden-files

If the photo thumbs reappear... they can look washed out...
to clear this up... right click on a picture or a selected group
or folder and choose... Properties, uncheck the box.
'Hidden' / apply / OK.

  • Cannot rotate JPEG of DSC-WX350 pictures in Windows Photo Viewer. Should use memories of play?

    I recently bought a Sony DSC-WX350 and uploaded pictures on my PC. I can see/open the pictures, but I can't rotate JPEG images using Windows Photo Viewer (I can easily rotate images taken with my Canon and Olympus cameras). I tried to rotate the images on two different PC's with the same result (using Windows 8). Sony offers a software play memories, but I don't want to download and use yet another software package when all I want to do is rotate images before sharing them with family and friends. If I rotate the images before sharing them, my family / friends would have to download the software of memories play in order to rotate/edit? I tried not to actually change the photos again, which could also be a problem. I tend to return the camera. Thank you

    Hello xctour,

    Please check the image properties and uncheck [read-only] only then try to rotate the image or rotate the image using Microsoft Paint.

  • Change the order of pictures in Windows Photo Viewer?

    I was wondering if anyone knows if it is possible to change the order in which Windows Photo Viewer load images? To clarify, if you use a large (or whatever that either size) display of the icon in a folder, when I hit the "next" or the "back" button, rather than display the image to the left or right of the current one, photo viewer load the preceding or beneath it.  Basically the program reads from top to bottom in vertical columns, rather than left to right on a horizontal line. Is it possible to fix this?

    No sorry, there is no configuration for this.

  • How to change the pictures in windows photo viewer?

    When you open a photo in windows photo viewer.  There is a way to change?  I took the red-eye once!  I don't know how I did it?

    No, it's basically a look at a program only. You need another program like the free Windows Live Photo Gallery 2011 available here:

    If you want something more advanced and are willing to pay, then Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 is a popular choice for private users.

  • Unable to display pictures using Windows Photo viewer, error: COM Surrogate.

    Hi RazorCallahan,

    Are you using Intel display drivers?

    If so, most of the people have been able to solve the problem by rolling back to the previous Intel driver which solves the 'COM Surrogate' error.

    For more information, you can consult at the suggestion of steve314159 from the following link:

    It seems that the pilot was the problem, but when I scroll the photos is always a little slow/lag.

  • You can turn the photo in Windows Photo Viewer

    Judging by the large number of comments, rotating an image in Photo Viewer seems to be a common problem and I do not understand why. Have spent a lot of time to wade in these messages, and am even more close to an answer. I followed the instructions in http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Rotate-a-picture-using-Windows-Photo-Viewer and everything works well until you reach step 3, where the image is in the viewer of photos ready to be turned except that neither rotation arrow functions. Would appreciate a person offering a convincing explanation to the simple function to transform an image on the screen vertically on the side. Thank you very much.

    This is for all images or only some?

    Check that the 'Read only' attribute is not defined for the relevant photos. Right click on the image, click 'Properties' and in the [general] tab make sure "Read-only" is not checked. If this is the case, try unchecking it.

    If you can not yet use turn, run a sfc/scannow and see if it detects and solves all problems.

  • Distortion of color in Windows Photo Viewer

    In the last few weeks I noticed that when I go to see a preview of a picture using Windows Photo Viewer, it has a tinge of yellow/orange in it and because of this I don't really see that are the colors of the image. This happens with every photo I discovered without worrying about its format (jpg, gif, png, etc.). I am able to see the photo in a slideshow with its normal colors and open the image in another program (for example, paint or Gimp) displays the image normally as well. Other colors properly on my screen as well (nothing seems out of the ordinary) until I click on an image to preview.

    Here's what I see: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v353/Kuuchan/distortion.jpg
