Windows problem Photo Gallery: cannot open pictures on the desktop

I use Windows Photo Gallery problem as the program default to open images and has long had no problem with it.  But now when I try to double click on an image .jpg on my desktop, nothing happens.  When I drag & drop the exact same photo file to 'my photos' or anywhere else, I am able to open it.  Anyone have any ideas?

Check if your Windows Photo Gallery has its flaws.

Start > default of programs > Set Your Default programs > left side, click Windows Photo Gallery...
He said "this program has all its defaults"?
I have no f, click on choose by default for this program "> put checkmarks on all entries in the list." > click Save.

It work?

Also check if the file association for the jpg has opened by photo gallery.

Start > default programs > set a file type or Protocol with a program > under the name on the right, scroll down to .jpg, up until it clicks > look to the right. Does say Windows Photo Gallery? > If not, click on change program > select Windows Photo Gallery > click OK when finished.

  • Problems with the Windows on Windows 7 Photo Viewer, cannot open the picture

    Good evening!

    I can't open a few photos that I downloaded from my digital camera's SD card.  They are all in the same folder, and they are all JPEG.  Some of them are open very well, but there are MANY who are not open and I get the message: 'Windows Photo Viewer cannot open this photo because Photo Viewer does not support this file format, or you do not have the latest updates for Photo Viewer. "  As I said, they are all JPEG, as well as the Windows Photo Viewer is already set as my default Photo Viewer.   When I opened the window of the picture viewer I have not been invited for updates.

    I don't understand why some of my photos to shoot to the top of fine and the rest don't pull up at all.   Where will ensure that I have the latest update?  You have any other suggestions?

    Thank you in advance for your help!

    Looks like there are probably good copies elsewhere then... I was worried, you might well have lost some of your photos, and it is always better to access the card and copy and paste the files (and then check that they are ok) before using the software download and the removal from the Board. If the files have been corrupted somehow during the transfer process, they can still be recoverable in respect of the SD card using something like the free version of "recuva" providing that the SD card has not been re-used and previous files overwritten by new material. However, if your sister still photos as well which should not be necessary.

    I don't think this is likely to be a problem with the photo viewer, but let us know when you received that email... all the best - Ric.

    Change the associations of the image on your system has no effect the

    starts when you open a photo on your system.

    BTW... If you are referring to Adobe Reader... it is to view .pdf files

    If your photos are JPEG (.jpg) files your recipients should be able to

  • Cannot open pictures from the bridge

    I installed and updated the PhotoshopCC and the BridgeCC.

    I can view the images in Bridge. However, whenever I double-click on it, I get the following error message"

    "Windows cannot find C:\Programfiles\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6 (64-bit). Make sure you typed the name correctly and try again. "I can open PhotoshopCC files without going to the bridge.

    What can I do?

    This may be linked to this problem: PhotoshopCC does not seem to set file associations.

    I've deleted and reinstalled Photoshop CC everything seems to be ok now. I think I solved the problem. If you have Photoshop CS 6 in your system and then install Photoshop CC, CC Photoshop replace all the relevant entries in the file association. The problem comes when you then uninstall the old version. The uninstall procedure clears all file association emtries, even if they are labeled as CC. This leads to the exchanger of problem in my first post. We can solve it by uninstalling and then re-installing Photshop CC. What seemed to be a problem of 'Bridge' is relly a problem of "Photoshop". If you do only want one version of Photoshop on your system, uninstall the old version before installing Photoshop CC.

  • lost all the images contained in the "my pictures" file on the hard disk while using Windows Live Photo Gallery

    I lost all the images contained in the "my pictures" file on the hard drive.  The files are there but when I open the files they are all empty. It's like some 50 folders and each folder contained about 25 or so images jpg. I lost the using the "windows live photo gallery» I found a thread that someone else has had this problem and only one answer was to check the checkbox 'Show hidden files'. I have done this no luck there. When I open "windows live photo gallery" all records are on the left of the window but empty. I did not send any of these files to the "trash".  Can someone tell me how to recover these?

    You ran the scanner of MS too? It will take some time, but it must be done. If a virus is responsible for it must be nuked before he can ravage any more.

    Send all the pictures? You can still recover these - and get some help course in order to avoid this sort of thing. External hard drives and online storage are worth a small spending to protect valuable files. I also keep the dvd - outdated image files but enough fix if even they can deteriorate over time (but don't we all!)

    Let us know if the scan MS lands anything - run the full scan - it will take time.

  • "Import pictures and videos using Windows Live Photo Gallery" option is missing from AutoPlay in Windows 7 64 bit

    I saw this question and answer:

    http://social.answers.Microsoft.com/forums/en-us/w7files/thread/5c567ab1-208D-400D-9bce-0598d43a0574

    but I think I have a more serious problem. In Windows 7 RC, when I plugged in my camera or insert a memory card, I could choose "import pictures and videos using Windows Live Photo Gallery", but in my new installation of Windows 7 RTM, on which I have installed Windows Live Photo Gallery, there is no "Import pictures and videos using Windows Live Photo Gallery" option allotted me in the list of Control Panel AutoPlay or on the AutoPlay pop-up that appears when I plug in a camera.

    How can I get that back? Without this option, I have to go through the manual steps tedious to execute WLPG and manually choose to import from there and say what is my camera. It was much better under Vista and Win7RC when I had the simple auto play option.

    My PC is running Windows 7 Professional 64-bit, but I also installed WLPG on two new computers Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit my parents, and they have exactly the same problem. Is this a known bug? Is there a solution?

    Thanks in advance for any help you can offer!

    Change the settings of the REGISTRY can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the REGISTRY settings configuration can be solved. Changes to these settings are at your own risk.

  • Why "Windows Live Photo Gallery" open automatically every time I have save a jpeg image?

    Whenever I have save a JPEG of a website for Windows Live Photo Gallery automatically opens.

    This has only started happening recently. How can I stop too?
    I went to options and clicked the 'open Windows Live Photo Gallery after importing files' option, but it still appears.
    It seems to only be with jpeg images.

    Hello Michael,

    Has probably had a modified default parameter. To do this: go to control panel and select default programs. When that opens the first series to select your default programs, when this window opens select Windows Live Photo Gallery in the left column and choose defaults for this program on the right side. When this window opens, make sure that the JPEG is not selected. Save your changes and then OK yourself.

    And to the home page by default, select programs associate any type of file or Protocol with a program. When this window opens to scroll to the bottom of the left side of the window until you get registration .jpeg. If the default associated program isn't one you want, go to top right and click on change program... When this window opens, either select a program from the list, select one of the other list of programs, or click Browse and select the program in the Explorer style list that is offered.

    Let me know if this solves the problem for you.

    Kind regards
