• Windows Photo Gallery does not open the zipped files

  Photo Gallery Windows does not open the photos that are in the zipped files received by Email. He said: Photo Gallery can't open this photo or video. This file format is not supported, or you do not have the latest updates to the photo gallery.

  This is expected behavior...

  Unzip the file and open the uncompressed version. Or just open
  the zip files and do drag the photos on the zip file and
  drop in a new folder.then you can open.

• Photo Gallery does not open some files (pictures) that he used. He said: it is not "supported."

  Photo Gallery does not open some files that it used.  He said that its not "supported"?  In addition, I can't open some of the files that are in that I think an older version of word.  How can I fix these problems?  There is no window that opens for updates when opening Photo Gallery.

  Well, you don't say what files it used to open then try this. Control Panel, programs, by default, set your default progaams, Windows Photo Gallery, set this program as default.

• After downloading, Windows Photo Gallery does not display the Photo, why?

  For several months, whenever I open a message, image or text downloaded with, library or, Nero Photosnap, I do not get to see the Photo, or text. I have to use Explorer or Firefox. Photo Gallery just recording the of scanned photos, downloaded cheap. I have "NERO 7" and "WINRAR" installed." Everything worked fine until a few months ago. How can I fix?

  Hi willmulholland,

  1. What is the file format of the uploaded image?

  2. use the Windows or Windows Photo Gallery live photo gallery?

  3. you receive an error message when you try to view the images uploaded using Windows Photo Gallery?

  4. are you having similar problem when displaying any other picture using Windows Photo Gallery?

  If you use Windows live photo gallery, then I would say that you post your question in the forums of Windows live.

  Hello

  I use Windows Photo Gallery to see all my photos. Recently, when I tried to display a photo (in jpg format) file an error appears and says "error loading C:\ProgramFiles\WindowsPhotoGallery\PhotoViewer.dll the system cannot find message for message number 0 x %1 in the message for %2 file.»

  Then when I tried to open the Windows Photo Gallery, this error pops up "cannot find 'C:\ProgramFiles\WindowsPhotoGallery\PhotoViewer.exe' make sure you typed the name correctly and then try again."

  I don't remember when this started to happen, but I would be really grateful if someone could help me find a solution. Thank you.

  Hello, Gloria

  I just wanted you to know that I managed to do that work again. I had other problems with my computer and have my computer reformatted. After that, the Gallery worked. I tried to fix it by following the steps of checking file you gave me, but it did not work. Thanks for trying to help. I appreciate it! :)

  I think that your scanning resolution is
  much too high.

• Windows Photo Gallery does not save the edited images.

  I have problems editing contrast and red-eye with Windows Photo Gallery.  I get rid of the red eye and change the brightness, close gallery and get an error message "an error prevents photo library to save this image."  The image isn't 'read only', it is a jpeg file, and I am the owner/user.  I edited many other images, but now it restricts me to do these as well as a few others that I've ever edit.  Any ideas on what's going on?

  Hello sjleite,

  Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Community Forum.

  If you encounter problems, saving images edited when you could before, I would ask

  If you have installed the 3rd party software that may interfere with the Windows Photo Gallery.

  (1) If you have a third Party photo editing software, try removing it and see if that doesn't

  correct your problem.

  (2) other forums, I found several mentions to be a problem with a corrupted author field. Look in the file properties Details page. You can get the properties on the photo in question, scroll to the right section of author and origin and remove characters. Select apply and close the file. If the field of copyright has no characters to remove, try adding a few characters and then delete them.

  (3) the last thing to try is to check the permission on the Windows Photo Gallery.

  Go at the beginning and list programs. Right-click on the icon of photo gallery windows live and go to properties. Select tab security put highlight the Everyone group, click the button change. Put a control under all permissions allow. Then do the same for the users group. Click on apply or OK.

  If please post again and let us know if these suggestions helped solve your problem or if you need further assistance.

  Sincerely,
