Remove all tags from the Windows Photo Gallery

I deleted all the pictures in Windows Photo Gallery, but I can't find out how to remove all the tags at the same time. I really want to remove several hundred tags one at a time.

This thread does not remove the tags of your files. http://social.answers.Microsoft.com/forums/en-us/vistapictures/thread/399801ba-4824-4293-b135-94513d744911

I want to completely erase these files and database.  Thanks for any help

  • How can I get the tags on the Windows Photo Gallery to attach the photo file?

    In the past, I had problems with the tags disappear as if by magic of my photos after many hours of their entry.  A few years ago I tried, as a measure of precaution, to make the files read-only and eliminate a bunch of change permissions, thinking that might prevent data disappear.  (FYI: it didn't.)  Anyway, recently I have been seized all the tags through the Windows Photo Gallery (mistake #1).  Only problem was, I don't remember I had changed permissions (error #2).  I have since reset the permissions, but now I have a bunch of pictures with labels WPG, but not in the files themselves, and I know from experience that it will be a mistake to keep it like that.

    So the question is this: How can I transfer the WPG tags only to the photo files themselves?  (Please tell me that there is an easy way...)

  • PC control is no longer the printer to print in color from the windows photo gallery

    printer will receive the photo of the Gallery, but will only print in black and white.  I printed a test page for my printer without going through the computer and it will print in color.  Also, if I scan a picture and print it, it is printed in color, so I don't think that my printer is the problem.  I think that my computer does not have my printer to print in color?

    I think my problem is in the Windows Photo Gallery rather than on the computer that sends a command to the printer?

    I recently had some viruses removed from the computer and I wonder if in the process of fixing that, the person at the other end may have changed the settings or something related to sending a command from the PC to the printer?  Is this possible?

    Hello

  • error message when you try to print from the windows photo gallery

    I can't print the Windows Photo Gallery photos: failure of the Document to print - load plain paper.  I reloaded paper, updated printer drivers and called Dell technical support, who said it was a software isue since I can print other documents as well as photos from Photoshop Elements. I get the same message when I try to print from painting and the image viewer. Looks like a problem of microsoft.
    My printer is Dell V515w and is 4 months old.
    Even if I can use Photoshop Elements, it is easier to use the Windows Photo Gallery.  Any ideas?

  • Transfer pictures from email received to the windows photo gallery

    Transfer pictures from email received to the windows photo gallery

    Transfer pictures from email received to the windows photo gallery

    Assuming you are using Vista...
    Windows Photo Gallery is just an 'intermediate '. Real images are stored in a folder. Usually, it is in the pictures folder.
    Click the Start button > right side, click on the photos.

    Now, the pictures that you received in the mail came as attachments?
    If so, and assuming you are using Windows mail...
    Right-click on the "trombone" (attachment) > click on save attachments > place you in the folder of your choice (the destination where the photos will be saved in) > click Save.

    Photos are now saved in the folder you selected. For the benefits of others looking for answers, please mark as answer suggestion if it solves your problem.

  • 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.

  • Error unknown 0x88982F50 when you try to change the properties of a JPEG file in the Windows Photo Gallery

    I am running Windows Vista Home Premium Service Pack1 and use Windows Photo Gallery to managemy photos. I like the fact that I can integrate tags and ratings in JPEG files.

    I just noticed though, that the tag is no longer to be stored in the JPEG file. I know because when I saw the properties of the file tag information I have in the Windows Photo Gallery is not present. If I try to change the properties directly, I get an error message stating:

    An unexpected error prevented the operation. Make a note of this error code, which might be useful if you get additional help to resolve this problem: 0x88982F50 error: No. Error Description available.

    I checked the file isn't read-only etc.

    I searched Microsoft.com for this error and have found no help. I searched the internet and have seen many forums to raise this issue, but I can't find a solution.

    Note that when I try to fix an image in Windows (eye of harvest/red etc.) Photo Gallery, I also get an error that says I can't save the changes.

    For me, it looks like a component is faulty or missing, but how is it resolved?

    Hi RealPaulus,

    Solution for error 0x88982F50:

    Hi Lowndes,

    You can add photos and videos to photo gallery without automatically including all of the other files stored in the same folder.
    1. open the folder that contains the picture or video you want to add to the photo gallery.

    2. open Windows Photo Gallery by clicking on the Start button, all programs, and then clicking Windows Photo Gallery.

    3. drag the picture or video from the folder to the Photo Gallery window.

    The photo or video is copied to your pictures folder and automatically added to photo gallery.

    ------------------------------

    Here's what I use and recommend: (these are all free and very effective versions.)

    Avast and Prevx proved extremely reliable and compatible with all I have
    launched on them. Microsoft Security Essentials and Prevx have also proven to be very
    reliable and compatible. Use MSE or Avast and Prevx, Prevx 3 but not all.

    Avast Home free - stop any shields is not necessary except leave the file system, Web,.
    Operational network (Script and behavior are also recommended in Ver 6 +).

    Prevx - Home - free

    Windows Firewall

    Windows Defender (is not necessary if you use MSE)

    Protected IE - mode

    IE 8 - SmartScreen filter WE (IE 7 phishing filter)

    I also IE always start with asset if filter InPrivate IE 8.
    (It may temporarily turn off with the little icon to the left of the + bottom
    right of IE)

    Two versions of Avast are available 6.x and 4.8 x

    Avast - home - free - 6.x stop shields you do not use (except files, Web, network, &)
    Shields of behavior) - double click on the icon in the Notification area - real time Orange - click on the
    Shield that you want to stop - STOP. To stop the Orange icon to show an error indicator-
    Click on the Orange icon - top right - settings - click on the status bar - uncheck shields you
    disabled - click OK
    http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download

    Avast 4.8 x - home - free - stop shields, you don't need except leaving Standard, Web,.
    and the network running. (Double-click the blue icon - look OK. - upper left - Shields details
    Finish those you don't use).
    http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download#TAB4

    Or use Microsoft Security Essentials - free
    http://www.Microsoft.com/Security_Essentials/

    Prevx works well alongside MSE or Avast

    Prevx - home - free small, fast, exceptional protection CLOUD, working with other security
    programs. It is a single scanner, VERY EFFICIENT, if it finds something come back here
    or use Google to see how to remove.
    http://www.prevx.com/   <-->
    http://info.prevx.com/downloadcsi.asp?prevx=Y<-->

    Choice of PCmag editor - Prevx-
    http://www.PCMag.com/Article2/0, 2817,2346862,00.asp

    Also get Malwarebytes - free - use as scanner only. If you ever think malware and that
    would be unusual with Avast and occasional Prevx running with the exception of a low level cookie
    (not much), to UPDATE and then run it as a scanner. I have a lot of scanners and they
    never find anything of note that I started to use this configuration.

    Hi kstormu812,

    Welcome to Microsoft answers forums!

    I would like to know the following information to help focus in the right direction.

    a. don't you make changes to the computer before this problem?

    b. don't you make changes to the windows photo gallery settings?

    c. What is the exact error message and error code?

    d. you are able to see other images saved on the computer with no problems?

    e. What is the file format of the photos or videos?

    If you have a third party photo editing software, try removing it and see if that will help.

    Note: Please try this step only if you can recover the program.

    Gallery Photo will show images with any of these file types:

    ·         BMP, JPEG, JFIF, TIFF, PNG, WDP

    If Windows Movie Maker is installed, photo library will also play videos in these types of files:

    ·         ASF, AVI, MPEG, WMV.

    If you view files, that are other than the files listed above, you will need to convert them to the format mentioned above.
