Bridge opens in Windows Photo Viewer

This is a pain previous version opened directly into Photoshop, is this a bug can this be changed from Windows Viewer default to Photoshop

I actually WANT my BMPs to open with Windows Photo Viewer, but they don't For some reason PNG files DO open with Windows Photo Viewer by default in Bridge, but BMPs open with Photoshop.
The time to load photoshop is like loading a cannon to shoot a goldfish oftentimes when I just want to look at a picture quickly rather than edit it, sooo, I was wondering is there any way to change items TO use Windows Photo Viewer, since it's not listed as an option for anything but PNG?
Of course, in the File Associations setting of Preferances, you can Browse for a new program to add, but it doesn't like the input of %SystemRoot%\System32\rundll32.exe "%ProgramFiles%\Windows Photo Viewer\PhotoViewer.dll", ImageView_Fullscreen %1 (where %1 is the filename) which is what Windows uses normally to open Windows Photo Viewer since it's part of a DLL rather than a separate program...According to a google of windows photo viewer location
.... Yet, of course Bridge opens PNG files for me with Windows Photo Viewer, so there must be some way to add the option manually for BMP somehow if I can copy whatever set up it's using to open PNG files with it?
Thank you for any help anyone

JPGS are set to open in Photoshop Elements, but they open in Windows Photo Viewer instead, even when I specifically select Photoshop (and it's the default app)

Hi,
It seems this is a Microsoft related. You are referring on how to set JPG Image in Photoshop Elements by default. You may try visiting Microsoft's Support page http://support.microsoft.com/ for you to get the correct information/help you need.

i lost my recovery partition for hp dv6 63300ee, with windows 7 home,, what can i do to back it?

Hi,
This assumes that Windows 7 was the original OS that your notebook came with.
If you created a set of Recovery Discs you can use these to reinstall the original OS - they will also re-create the Recovery Partition on the Hard Drive as well as reinstalling all your original software. Remember this is a destructive process, so back up any personal files etc that you wish to keep before reinstalling the Operating System.
If you don't have your original Recovery Discs, you can order a replacement set using the link below.

If you have any problem with this link, order them directly from HP.
If you live in the US, contact HP Here.
If you are in another part of the world, start Here.

I D/L'd a trial version of LR 5 and lost all my catalog and collections in LR 4. What can I do to get them back?

Yesterday I D/L'd a trial version of LR 5.6 and during installation it seemed to be copying my catalog from my LR 4.4. Now nearly all of my catalog and all my collections in LR 4 have disappeared. What has happened to them andhow do I get them back. The original photos seem to still be available in the myphotos directory on the computer, but without any of my lightroom editing.

Thank you so much! I was freaking out that I had lost the whole
catalog and all my collections. It would have been good if Adobe
support had been able to point me in the right direction with this
advice. They basically shrugged their shoulders and said tough
luck! I am not impressed!
Thanks again, Anne

Issue with Windows Photo Viewer: "can't save picture because an unknown error occured"

Hi,
I recently installed Windows 7 RC (Build 7100). I quite often have an issue in Windows Photo Viewer when rotating an image and trying to go to the next picture. It gives me the error "Windows Photo Viewer can't save picture because an unknown error occured".
Seperate from this issue: when I delete a picture in Windows Photo Viewer, it is still in the Windows Explorer overview of files. This did not use to be the case in Windows XP?
Kind regards,
Frederik

Hi
SOSv2 ,
This should be fixed in Windows 7 RTM.
Also, you can install Windows Live Photo Gallery to view and rotate pictures as well. To download it, please click
HERE . For more information about Windows Live Photo Gallery, you can
a question on
Windows Live Answers
In addition, please understand that Nikon RAW images (and most Canon) do not support rotate functionality in Windows Photo Viewer, and thus rotate is
disabled. To rotate those types of images, the user will need to use an image editing program that fully supports their RAW codec.
Regards,
Linda
I am using Win 7 x64 Ultimate RTM and still have this problem (with JPG's dumped from my Nikon to the hard drive). Doesn't do it on every one that I rotate, but still very annoying. Is there a fix?

Open With in Photo Viewer app gives hundreds of NoUIEntrypoints-DesignMode

I am developing a store app and have a button on my app (Open With) in the same way as the Windows 8.1 Photo app. This works fine, however, I now get hundreds of entries saying NoUKEntryPoints-DesignMode in the list which makes it take a long time to open.
This also happens in the Windows Photo App too.
Can anyone throw any light on this, I assume its something I have done in my app

I had over 1000 entries like the one below, any idea how these would have got there?
Is there an easy way to get rid of them other than deleting them one at a time?

Lots of noise in the windows picture-viewer - What can I do?

Hello folks,
I hava a problem I just noticed. My very first pregnancy pictures have a lot of noise after I saved them as a jpg-file. It's a pretty dark picture in Black&White. In Photoshop it looks great and I noticed that it also looks great in Windows 8 new photo-App. Only the "old" picture-viewer shows all the noise that actually isn't there. My problem now is that, if I send the pics to my customers, the could be pretty dissappointed when they see the bad result that really isn't a bad result at all. And it would be pretty stupid to tell them not to use the picture-viewer or ignore the noise that actually isn't there....
Now my problem: Did I make a mistake during the saving-progress as a jpg-image?
What needs to be done to have a good-looking result, no matter which software or program opens the picture?
Thanks so much from Germany,
Alexander
PS: The noise is now not seen in the picture above. But it is when I use the picture-viewer.

Hello again,
thanks for your help. I treid the steps you told me. "RGB Color" was already checked as well as "convert to SRGB". I tried to convert to adobe RGB and also removed the profile and saved a new JPG each time - with no difference, unfortunately.
Could it maybe have something to do with "Grayscale" since it is a black&white picture?
I'm very confused with that whole subject. The problem is that the pics aren't saved with all that noise in them, it's the picture viewer simply deceiving us. And most people use that software to watch their pics that way..... I can already imagine the complaint from the woman in the pics....
I hope you have some more advice for me.
Thanks,
Alex

Windows photo viewer - problem with JPEG files

Can not open JPEG files and can not create JPEG files from other software (For example from Solidworks).
When I try to right click on a JPEG, a notice window appears written: "Windows Explorer has stopped working - Windows is
checking for a solution to the problem" and then the notice box disapears, the desktop appears and I can continue working.
From the other side - If I try to save as JPEG a screen of Solidworks (like a view of a part) the Solidworks falls but the JPEG
is created (I can see its name in the directory I created it).
I can open the JPEGS with the Paint software if I want but not with the Windows Photo Viewer.
I have the feeling that the Windows Photo Viewer disapeared from my computer - just a feeling.
I will appreciate your assistance.

Hi,
According to your description,please re-associate the .jpeg with Windows photo viewer.
1.Open Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Default Programs\Set Default Programs.
2.Click Windows Photo Viewer, and choose defaults for this program, check the .jpeg, and then click Save.
3.Next,click Windows Photo Viewer again, and click Set this program as default.
As you said, when you tried to right click on a JPEG, Windows Explorer stopped working.
I suggest you use ShellExview to remove the third-party shell extension.

Problem intel HD 4400 monitor 13 inches - defect of the resolution on "windows photo viewer"

Hello to all the community!
I have a Lenovo yoga pro2.
model: 20266
(i74510U - 2ghz - RAM 8gb - Windows 8.1 - total memory available 1792 Mb - resolution monitor recommended 3200x1800).
When I open the same image with "windows photo viewer" for example on the 15-inch monitor the result is ok (Windows7)
Click here to view image.
whereas on the my Lenovo from the 13-inch monitor the visualization is very small. On my Lenovo the menu buttons of "windows photo viewer" are also very small from see (see rectangles highlighted in red)
Click here to view image.
I tried to change all the settings the user side at my disposal, but the problem persists.
Same thing on the graphics program PAINT.NET. All the menu bars, commands, icons, etc, are displayed very small.
You need to make some changes advanced on the card 4400?
Can you help me?
Thanks

Please refer to About Posting Pictures for more information.

This is unfortunately often an expected behavior for an High-DPI display like the Yoga 2 Pro has (using the same machine btw.). Because the Display on the Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro has far more pixels on the same area, each pixel is a lot smaller as on other displays. So a control element with 200x200 Pixels looks a lot smaller than on another screen with a lower resolution. The apps have to take this in account, so that they render those elements with more pixels on a High-DPI screen like the one the Yoga 2 Pro uses. If so they are described as dpi-aware. I don't know if the Photo Viewer in Windows 8 is dpi-aware or not and I cannot test this as my machine is already running Windows 10. But as for paint.net I know this one is perfectly dpi-aware and should look just fine. I have it installed myself on this Yoga 2 Pro and it looks just fine to me. This scaling that dpi-aware Apps and windows elements do can be adjusted in the Control Panel. How you do that is described HERE with Option 1 and the steps 1-5 (skip the other steps and especially option 2). Just move the slider shown in step 5 to "larger". You have to log out and in or restart the machine to let the new setting take effect.

Windows photo viewer stuff

I am trying to open phots using photoshop for editing. My computer continues to use window photo viewer. what am I doing wrong. I have Vista on my laptop

Right click on the photofile. In the menu that comes up, go to "open with" and select Photoshop Elements editor. You can make this file association the default, if you wish.

All Files Try to open with Photo Viewer

I was downloading some pictures and when finished ,now all files try to open with photo viewer. (ie Word,Excel,Paint,just all files lised on the menu. If someone knows how to fix this pleas reply.

Hi ObiWanKanobe,
I recommend you check the Default Programs. Follow these steps:
1. Click Start – input “default programs”(without quotation)
2. Click Set your default programs.
3. Choose Windows Photo Viewer in the left panel, then Choose defaults for this program.
4. Make sure you don’t check other types of files, like doc and so on.
Then check if the issue persists.
Regards,
Miya

Every time I open iPhoto a window opens telling me that there are 3 photos that have not been imported. Recovered folders are opened with no photos and I cannot find which photos have not been imported. Help please!

Every time I open iPhoto a window opens telling me that there are 3 photos that have not been imported. This happens twice. When I answer yes then nothing happens and if I answer no then a recovered folder is opened with no photos in it. These recoverable folders keep opening with no photos in them. I cannot find which photos have not been imported. Can anyone assist please?

Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
Look there for a Folder called 'Import' or 'Importing'.
Drag it to the Desktop. *Make no other changes*.
Start iPhoto. Does that help?
If it does then look inside that folder on your desktop. Does it contain anything you want? If not you can trash the folder.
