[.jpg image] is not a valid win 32 application

PC Win Xp SP3
Prior to upgrading to CS5 (from CS4) I could couble click on any image, .jpg, .CR2, .DNG, .TIF, .BMP any image file anywhere on my computer and CS4 would open and open the image inside CS4. After upgrading to CS5 I get an annoying error message telling me "[.jpg image] is not a valid win 32 application" I find that hard to believe because all the images were valid Win 32 applications when I was using CS4. I then have to open CS5 and either drag the image to CS5 or Ctrl+O and find the image. It is not a crutial process but It makes be think there may be more amiss that just not being able to open images with a double click.

The fix for this ladies and gentlemen is to properly uninstall CS5 and reinstall it. I worked for a few hours today with an Adobe tech who used the remote access process and he tried everything I had tried on my computer to no avail and finally had to uninstall CS5 and reinstall. Although I was a bit surprised when he went to uninstall CS5 without deactivating it first. I stopped him as he move the pointer to "Remove" and told him he needs to deactivate CS5 before removal so I can reinstall it again. That would have been catastrophic. I lost all my actions I had created but I can build up the library again. So it is a relatively easy fix, jut do it.

  • TS3212 I just finished downloading iTunes, but when I clicked "Run" Windows indicated that it was not a valid WIN application and I lost the download. What can I do?

    I've been having a lot of trouble with iTunes lately. When I would sync my iPod to iTunes, many of the most recent songs I had downloaded would be removed from my playlists and their respective play counts wouldn't be updated. I had thought that updating iTunes would fix my problems, but each time I tried to download the update, nothing would happen. The dialog box that gives you the option to open or run the program would not appear. Finally, after referring to the Apple Support Community, I was able to find a link to download iTunes that allowed me to do so. But when the download was complete and I attempted to run the program, a Windows error occurred that indicated iTunes was not a valid WIN application. It gave me no other option but to click "OK" and when I did, I lost the entire download. I hope that there is a way to fix this problem.
    Thanks for reading.

  • I have Win7Pro64, tried to Un-Install Firefox control panel, no luck, tried running helper.exe from Uninstall folder and it says "Not a Valid Win-32 Application" What gives?? Just want to update to 3.6.4 and that didn't work either so I'm trying to remove

    Running Win7Pro64. Tried to update to 3.6.4 and it failed. It said to download the whole program so I did. Tried to install and says that the "License File" is missing. SO I go to un-install 3.6.3 myslef with Control Panel. All that did was remove Firefox as a listed program in control panel, all of it is still there in Explorer and it runs fine. So I go to use Helper.Exe under the Uninstall folder of Mozilla Firefox and when I click that, it says "Not a Valid Win-32 Application" What's up with that?? All I want to do is remove 3.6.3 so that I can clean install 3.6.4. I tried installing 3.6.4 two different ways with failures both times. I tried to remove 3.6.3 using two different ways, and that also failed both times.
    == This happened ==
    Just once or twice
    == I tried updating to 3.6.4. It failed both with the update and the full download, so tried to un-install 3.6.3 in control panel, then helper.exe with no luck.

    You don't want to update to 3.6.4, trust me. Stay with 3.6.3. If you need to download it again you can find it here:

  • Error of "Not a Valid Win 32 application " installing 7.0 for iPod Shuffle

    I have downloaded the apple Itunes 7 software and I get an error of : Not a Valid Win 32 application I have windows xp I have been trying to figure this out for a couple of hours.
    All I can figure out is that it is because I have dial up and not a broadband connection (which is one of the requirements for 7.0). If this is the problem, what do I do to get around the not having broadband?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!! I would love my new present to work! PS. a family member already has an Ipod Nano installed, can we use the same iTunes?

  • Installation of Office Pro 2007 - Error is not a valid Win 32 application

    I am using MS office Pro trial on widows 7 operating program and have just brought the full retail version.
    When I insert the installation disc the program will not install, after about 5 minutes I get a message"
    *D:\is not a valid Win 32 application.*
    The retail version I brought is certified for windows vista, I loaded on my PC which is running XP and the disc worked as should.( I did not go through with the install on the PC, I just tested the disc)
    I copied onto a external hard drive and tried to load it from there. No go!
    I even used my product key code on the trial program but it rejected it!
    Any ideas out there would be most helpful

    This may get round the problem if its related to "old" progs on your install disc. I used this method when installing Office 2007 with a packaging date of March 2007 in case it saved lots of product update downloads - worked perfectly but I still had 20+ updates downloaded after install.
    If you have a reasonable broadband speed then [dowload the Office 2007 trial|http://us20.trymicrosoftoffice.com/default.aspx] . MS email and display a trial product key but when the download starts to run don't use this key but your own "full" version product key
    Just re read your post - you are going from trial to full so what you do is follow MS instructions
    Follow these steps to activate the trial:
    Follow these steps to convert the trial:
    You can convert from the trial software to a full-version either before or after your trial period ends.
    Before the trial period ends:
    You will start receiving expiration reminder messages indicating the date when the trial will expire. At this point, you can convert to the full product in two ways:
    1. In any of the expiration reminder messages, click Convert, and then follow the steps in the conversion process, below.
    2. At any time during the trial period (or even after the trial has expired), you can open any of the Microsoft Office System products, and in the Help menu: click "Activate your software".
    After the trial period expires:
    The software goes into reduced functionality mode. Some of the limitations of reduced functionality mode include the following:
    - You can not create any new files.
    - You can view existing files, but you can not modify them.
    - You can print files, but you can not save them.

    Hi all, Im running into an unusual bug during my media based Win 7 32 bit light touch deployment. After the wizrad completes and it formats the drives right about the time its ready to inject the drivers i get an error
    E:\Deploy\Tools\X86\Microsoft.DBB.PnPEnum.exe is not a valid win32 application
    Anyone know what causes this error and how I can correct it? Thank you.

    The third option, bad network card.
    I had the same problem over the last few days. One particular machine just would not image. Changed power supply, hard drive memtest on the ram, nothing. Failed with a PNP error before the imaging process had begun. Tried both a win8 and win7 WDS server.
    The last thing to try, was disable the onboard network and put in a bootable PCI card which luckily i had. The machine then imaged fine.
    To me, it looked like a ram error, or disk error, but don't forget the network card is an integral component for getting the data INTO the ram in the first place!

  • Error message, not a valid win32 application

  • Error message "Not a valid Win32 application" when I try to install

    I have downloaded the setup software several times but I cannot get any of it to load. I get the message that it is not a valid Win 32 application. I am running Windows 7. I have no problems with Thunderbird on other machines. There are no help paragraphs anywhere in your system that address this issue - at least not using the available public index.

    if the installer is not valid, it will be because it has been corrupted in the download process. Usually by an over helpful anti virus program. As the installer is basically a 7Zip executable some corporate system will not allow the executable to run as it contains a ZIP file.

  • Itunessetup.exe is not a valid win32 application?!? help!

    has anyone else been getting an error message when trying to upgrade to itunes 7 that says something to the effect of "itunessetup.exe is not a valid win32 application" ???
    does anyone know what this means or how i can fix it??

    grgatzby,
    Empty the cache files of your browser and temp directory as described here: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93976
    Then save the file again to another location on the computer.
    If you cannot clear the cache, try to download the iTunes and quicktime setup installer from the quicktime site: http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/win.html

  • Satellite A300-1BZ: %1 is not a valid win32 application after themes change

    Having had my Satellite A300-1BZ for a couple of years now I found myself suddenly bored of the standard vista themes and began to play around with changing them. (I was after an ultimate black look with changed start buttons and menu's etc)
    Anyway cut to the chase, I went wrong somewhere with VistaGlazz following the steps of replacing something like shell32.dll
    As it said in the readme file I changed it to shell32.dll.bak
    My computer continued to run fine until I ran a restart. After that all I got after the log on screen was a blue screen with a mouse.
    http://i69.photobucket.com/albums/i53/eazynowrudeboy/IMG000030.jpg
    Luckilly I have an iphone so managed to get onto the internet forums and find a solution which was to use a command in cmd.exe which repaired the problem.
    The only thing now is that I have an extremely basic windows classic theme which when I try to change it to Vista in theme settings it gives the message:
    *"the theme could not load. %1 is not a valid win32 application"*
    Any help and step by step for basic user would be much appreciated! I am guessing it cant all be that bad since Windows is still running and functioning correctly!
    Thanks

    Thank you for both your replies, I have attempted to do a system restore to various points however each time get an error message saying that the restore could not be completed? I will give it a go again later on and repost the contents of the message.
    I then started digging for my recovery disks which I had to create myself when buying the laptop and have only managed to find disc one and I'm sure I remember creating two but cannot find it anywhere.
    Do you know what content would be on disc two and whether I can do it with just number one disc?
    Thanks for your assistance its very much appreciated!

    Looks like it might be a permissions issue. When you are at the command line, in a terminal window, what are the values of the environment variables ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_SID?

  • I cannot run setup because a box appears saying it is not a valid win32 application

    I have down loaded Firefox but cannot run the set up. When I try and open set up, a box appears saying the it is not a valid win 32 application. How do I get round this please?

    Do a clean (re)install:
    * Download a fresh Firefox copy from http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html and save the file to the desktop.
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
    * Don't remove personal data if you uninstall the current version.
    * It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    If you keep having problems then disable your ant-virus software temporarily during the download and installation of Firefox.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere (not in the Firefox program folder) and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

  • I am trying to download icloud control panel via icloudsetup.exe to windows Toshiba laptop and get a message" \icloudsetup.exe is not a valid Win32 application. Can anyone help? I am new to Apple stuff.

    Need help for icloud photo stream, have activated ps on iphone 4 and set up icloud back up for email, contacts, iwork, and find my ihone. Need to find photos that we thought were being saved/shared as well but evidently not. Found on another search that I may need the icloud control panel so tried to download it but when try to install i get, C:\Users\Downloads\icloudsetup.exe is not a valid Win32 application. I am using a Toshiba laptop with windows 7, which the system requirements are met. I am new to Apple stuff, so any and all help would be greatly appreciated.

    It suggests the installer is getting damaged during the download.
    I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/
    If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?
