Strange tint Windows Photo Viewer

I had a problem with the Windows Photo Viewer. Whenever I load an image, the entire window, image included, is given to this strange beige hue. It is the only program where it happens. The thumbnail is color correctly and it is coloured corectly seen in a slide show, but not in a preview. That seems independent of all the moniter settings or custom window color settings. Any ideas?

  • Too much contrast in the windows photo viewer

    Recently, I noticed that when I open an image in windows photo viewer, there is way to much contrast than usual. I tried to play with my display settings, and it solves nothing. I also noticed that when I open the picture in photoshop, it shows good contrast, but when opening the same photo with Photo Viewer, there is a lot of contrast. This problem also goes for the images on firefox.

    Here is an example. This is the same exact picture, nothing has changed.

    OK... you're right... I adjusted the brightness of my screen
    and now the left photo has more detail... especially the buildings
    you mentioned in the background.

    Maybe you have a color profile that is at the origin of the problem.

  • Windows Photo Viewer does not properly after installing Spyder 4 Express

    I installed Spyder 4 Express.    Open photoshop and got message this - original use - incorrect color profile so used original and all the images look OK.   But the photos opened through Explorer files (correct thumbnails), but when I preview with Windows Photo Viewer, the images are all very tinted orange.    I then removed Spyder 4 Express hoping to remove the colour profile info, no luck.   All other photo in other software and wallpaper moniter views are correct.   What should I do to correct the display color in the Windows Photo Viewer.

    Hello

    Thanks for posting your concern on the forum.

    According to the description of the question when you preview with Windows photos Photo Viewer are all very tinted orange. Maybe this is a chance that display drivers are getting corrupted or need to be updated.

    As you are referring to the Windows Photo Viewer, I suggest you to check the Windows Photo Viewer is defined as program default for Open the images. You can follow the steps mentioned below to check that.

    1. Press on the the window key + W.

    2. In Search box type in default programs , and then press enter.

    3. Click on Sand your default program.

    4. Now right-click on the Windows Photo Viewer, and then select set this program as default.

    For more details, you can refer to the following Microsoft article mentioned.

    Choose the apps Windows uses by default

    If the problem persists, try to update the drivers and install Windows updates. Drivers are updated occasionally. Windows can update automatically, or you can install the drivers updated yourself. It is important for you to have confidence in the updated drivers that you install. Windows warns you if it detects a suspicious or dangerous driver, you should not install.

    Download and install the drivers

    Hope it would help. If problem persists always post back with the current state of your computer and the result of the proposed suggestion, we will be happy to help you.

    Kind regards

  • Satellite C650 - Windows Photo Viewer crashes at every time currently in use

    Hi all

    My C650 is a new purchase and so far I was not able to view photos; on a memory stick, in "My pictures" or any form using the Windows Photo Viewer. Once I double click the photo icon, the image enlarged to full screen and freezes at "loading" is displayed.

    At this point, I can't even finish the process using windows Task Manager. I am only a student quite inexperienced in the functioning of computers, so any help will be greatly appreciated!

    Please don t get me wrong, but the best option for you is to ask a friend to you how it works and how to deal with different applications and different image formats.
    I mean who knows what pictures you have, which forms, what capacity and so on.

    With the standard format jpg, to avoid any problems. For example, in the windows Explorer you can find Public folder pictures with a few sample photos. You can open these photos?

  • Windows 7, Windows Photo Viewer

    When I try to open attachments photo (jpeg), it defaults to the Windows Photo Viewer, says loading but does nothing more immediately to freeze my HP computer. I have then close and restart my computer. Efforts to re - open the attachment has the same result. How can I solve this problem?

    Hello michael11

    Initially, Windows Photo Viewer is part of the operating system, but Microsoft's move into the Windows Essentials Application. I'm linking you to the site that you can go to download and install Microsoft Windows Essentials.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Live/Essentials

    I would like to download the full version of the software because an update for the Windows operating system you are using, or Photo Viewer Windows could have altered the application or could prevent you from using the application as it is not installed as expected the update.

    I would like to know if this fix works and if you have any other comments or concerns please feel free to re-post.

    Hello

    You did not mention the version of the operating system that is running in the computer with the problem. We know the version of operating system on this computer.

  • Windows Photo Viewer does not work when photo is clicked on

    When I click on the individual image in the folder, the first message received error is 'there was a problem starting D:\Program Files\Windows Photo Viewer\PhotoViewer.dll. The specified module could not be found.
