• How to change the brightness, contrast, and color in the photo viewer in Windows 7?

  Change the brightness, contrast, and color in the photo viewer in win 7?

  How to change the brightness, contrast and color in the windows photo viewer 7 (I used the fix option in xp and vista)
  Thanks for any help.

  Hi epse30,

  In Windows Vista Windows Picture and Fax Viewer has been replaced by the Windows Photo Gallery and there was an option to set the brightness, contrast, etc by using the Fix as you said.

  Unfortunately, this option is not available with the Windows Photo Viewer in Windows 7.

  However, Windows Live Photo Gallery has a number of easy to use tools for things like red eye fixing or clearing exposure and low light situations. Windows Live Photo Gallery gives you more creative control over your photos. You can download Windows Live Photo Gallery for free from the link below;

  http://download.live.com/Photogallery

  Access the link below for more information about editing photos with Windows Live Photo Gallery

  The above article is for Windows Vista, but it remains valid for Windows 7 as well.

• where the "photo viewer"? and windows fax

  I am trying to located 'windows picture and fax viewer' to remove the unwanted images. Isn't anyoneknow how to access this function so I can remove?

  I guess that your problem is that you want to view the files before deleting them.

  You can use free IrfanView.  It is much more powerful and versatile than Windows Picture and Fax Viewer.

  The reason why you can't find WP & FV is because it is in a file named dll enigmatic.  The following is courtesy of MS - MVP volunteer J (and assume you are using Windows XP):

  ********************************************************************************
  Try the following:

  Reach... Start / run... and type
  (or copy and paste):

  regsvr32 /i shimgvw.dll

  (Yes, the space after the 2 and the)
  After the i is necessary)

  Press on... Come in...

  You should see a dialog box stating:
  DllRegisterServer and DllInstall in successful shimgvw.dll

  Now... the following command should launch a blank Windows
  The screen image and Fax Viewer. He will say: no preview available.

  Rundll32.exe c:\windows\system32\shimgvw.dll,ImageView_Fullscreen

  Now set WP & FV as your default viewer, and you should be ready to see the photos.

  Open a folder and click right right click a picture...

• Windows 7 will not be printed with the photo viewer and Picture Manager.

  Everytime I open an image file with Windows or Office Picture Manager Photo Viewer and try to print, I get 4 message boxes that said "your photos cannot be printed because this error occurred.

  There is nothing else that a button OK - not even one error code.

  The strange this is I can print almost anything with any other program very well. Firefox, Photoshop, all those print without problem. It's only the viewer Photo and Picture Manager that do this.

  The printer is an Epson RX595 with 64-bit drivers.

  My Office Picture Manager calls a dialog box that has a dropbox to define the printer. If you create an image of a document (*.mdi) you know it's the printer driver that has a problem.

• Want to get an overview with the photo viewer and open with Photoshop

  Hello.  In all previous versions of Windows, I was able to do.  Right-click on an image and the 'Preview' option would open the image in the Windows Photo Viewer, and the option 'Open' it would open in Photoshop (or whatever the editor, I had chosen).  I just installed Windows 7 and I seem to be unable to get to do this.  If I select "Photo Viewer" as the default program for jpg files, I have TWO options 'Preview' in the right click menu.  Both will open it in Photo Viewer.  If I select Photoshop as the default program for jpg files, I get a 'Preview' and 'Open' option, but both open the image in Photoshop.

  How can I configure "Preview" with Photo Viewer, and 'open' with Photoshop?

  Thanks for the tips of registry.  I managed to find and fix the problem.  I tried to fix paint.net as the program open by default, and it has open in paint.net and presented in preview in Photo Viewer.  So I thought it was something to go astray with Photoshop.  Under HKEY_Classes_Root\Photoshop.JPEGFile.9\shell, there is a key-file for 'Preview '.  I deleted who, and now it opens in photoshop and previews in Photo Viewer.

• How to get the list view in iTunes 12.4.3 for Windows

  Guys, I'm LOSING MY MIND. I had to re - download iTunes (which I refused to update in eternity because I know of updated versions are generally never good), and this new Interface is making me remove my hair and cry. Not only is it completely intuitive, but it makes it incredibly difficult to navigate.

  I'm seeing all my music in classic list view, which I know he can do. When I first loaded it upward, she appeared in list view, but the time that I started clicking around, it became this heavy nightmare of the image. Every article I've read has a UI that I don't HAVE, where there is a drop-down list of some sort. Does anyone know how? I have attached a screenshot. BTW, that blue icon that you THINK would be seen list said just what is the next song. Complete waste of space. Jesus, just put it in a status bar, or scroll across the top.

  

  FYI: the only changes that I made in the preferences has been disable anything itunes store or apple related radio because literally ALL itunes became ads.

  How can I view my mode music list in iTunes 12.4?

  In the drop-down list, select music. Once in the music, in the sidebar, select the songs and you should be intraditional list view.

  Oh yes :)

  I have never used the program VEW and don't think I will check it - I just look at the Event Viewer logs the old-fashioned way (manually) if I think that there is a problem, but that might just be the old me.

  It is true that XP Home doesn't have Group Policy Editor, but all policy settings are always available via the registry.

  Some malware will change your GP settings and cause problems.

  I have a little import registry will correct all the ones I know, so if someone has these symptoms, any flavor of XP, they are running, I'll just send the script because sometimes you will be not able to solve the problem, even if you have not the GP Editor.

  The registry always import work - and work well for XP Home or XP Pro.  If you have the symptoms and XP Home, what would you?   Start the import operation of the registry.

  If you're curious, off on my SkyDrive it is a spreadsheet Excel (Group Policy settings) who has all the parameters of GP and where they are in the registry.  I do not recommend start searching, but it is useful to know where things are if there is a problem.

  I would not allow the connection of a security XP stuff unless you think you're being attacked.  More and verbose logging slows things down.  My Event Viewer Security log is empty.

  Find the links to the Microsoft Support Engineer for the most part useless to actually solve a problem (because it help you with your problem), if someone has a question or point of Event Viewer, I usually just send them this:

  To view the logs in Event Viewer, click Start, settings, Control Panel, administrative tools, event viewer.

  A shortcut to the event viewer is to click on start, run and enter in the box:

  %SystemRoot%\system32\eventvwr.msc

  Click OK to launch the event viewer.

  The most interesting newspapers are usually the system and Application logs.

  Some newspapers such as security and Internet Explorer may be completely empty or have just a few items.  The default settings for XP wants do not connect all this activity, unless you need to solve a problem in these areas.  If you enable logging for them the papers fill up quickly and could adversely affect the performance of your system with all the extras (often unnecessary) activity.

  If you have Microsoft Office installed, it has its own newspapers, and they can be empty or occasional boring activity very little or, if there is no problem with your desktop applications.  It's normal.

  Not every event is a problem, some are informational messages that things work very well, and some are warnings.

  However, no event should defy reasonable explanation.

  Each event is sorted by Date and time.  Errors will be red Xs, warnings will have yellow! s.
  Informational messages have white is.  Not every error or warning event means that there is a serious question.

  Some are excusable at boot time when Windows starts.  Try to find only the events to the date and time around your problem.

  If you double-click on an event, it will open a window of properties with more information.  On the right are black up and down arrow keys to scroll through the open events. The third button that looks like two overlapping pages is used to copy the details of the event in your Windows Clipboard.

  When you find an interesting event that occurred at the time of your question, click on the third button at the top and arrows to copy the details and then you can paste the details (right click, paste or CTRL-V) the text in detail here for analysis.  Remove all personal information from your information after you paste If you are forced to do so.

  If you paste an event, it will look something like this annoying system startup event:

  Description:

  To get a fresh start on any log of the event viewer, you can choose to clear the log (the log backup is available), and then reproduce your problem, then just look at the events around your show and troubleshoot events that are happening when you have your question.

  You can search for events on the World Wide Web and get ideas.  It's where people events they see and then to the top of their questions, ideas and solutions:

• All icons on the desktop have turned to photo viewer and cannot open these programs

  I recently had my computer up to date. Everything was fine until I put my memory stick in the laptop and tried to download my back upwards. Now, when I turn the laptop on the icons does not load and are all stuck in photo viewer and I cannot open programs at all. Can anyone help please, thank you

  Original title: icons on the desktop

  I'm not 100% sure but I think that you are having a bad "file extension association. This is where the default program to open a file is incorrect. In the case of your office, these are all shortcuts (for example. LNK files) and the. LNK Association was by mistake coupled with Photo Viewer.

  I've seen this happen when opening a program via a shortcut (for example. LNK file), you are asked what type of program to open it with. After you have selected the photo viewer (or another program) via the Select a program from a list of programs installedand check always use the selected program to open this type of file (circled in red below), the document or program referenced by the shortcut of origin opens in the Photo Viewer as it should.

  The problem is that now all shortcuts (for example. LNK files) on the desktop or in the Explorer will want to be opened by the photo viewer and often use the icon Photo Viewer to display the shortcut no matter what shortcut was originally intentioned to open. This is known as a file association and the default icon. The same condition can occur if you have performed these actions 'Open with' on one. JPG or even a. EXE, but the. LNK explanation is much more likely for the items on the desktop.

  The good news is that a small free utility was written to cancel the. LNK file association was created. There is also a registry hack to achieve, but I recommend the utility unASSOC for its ease of use.

  You can get a copy of my OneDrive here. I used to send people elsewhere to download a copy, but this page is more in addition to confusion with misleading ads to download this and this computer of powders of snake oil "fixed".

  

  Just download, then use the utility to unassociate the. LNK files for the user or globally delete the file type and let windows rebuild a new default.

• I got negatives on a CD. The instructions say to "run the Photo on the CD Viewer '.» How can I do this?

  I got the negatives on a CD instead of local printing. The instructions that came with the CD says: 1) Insert the CD into your computer [what I did];

  (2) run "photo Viewer for Windows: on the CD." Use the photo viewer to see photos & save them to your computer.

  [I did not #1 because I do not know how to do "... on the CD" etc etc] [Can someone tell me how to make this you?]

  If J tips do not help, download and install IrfanView (it's free).  Start IrfanView, click file > open, navigate to your CD-ROM drive, and then select the first file.  Once the file is open, you can use the left/right arrows in the menu bar of IrfanView to come and go through your negatives.

  You will see that IrfanView is a very powerful and versatile image viewing application.  Among other things, you can display many different types of image files, conversion between types (for example, to convert a BMP to JPG file) and resize the image (useful for emailing) files.

  Although you could save the files you open and view them by clicking file > save on each of them, it is easier to save all the files at once:

  • Put the CD in the drive
  • Open my computer
  • Double-click the icon for your CD drive
  • Click Edit > select all
  • In the right pane, click "copy the selected files.
  • In the context menu, navigate to the location where you want to save the files (probably in my pictures - you will need to click on the + sign next to My Documents to see)
  • Click the copy button
