Having just bought a new laptop with o/s Vista, I installed my favourite graphics program but am disappointed that it will not open any of my pictures, regardless of format. The majority of my photo's are saved in jpeg. When I try to I access the pictures it says 'preview unavailable' and/or 'cannot open file, file may be damaged'. I have used Microsoft Photodraw V2 for years on all previous operating systems with no problem, the last one being Windows XP. I love the program and miss using it. Can anyone give me any advice or information on this please.
Picasa is free photo editing software from Google, another popular one is IrfanView.
Microsoft Photodraw V2 as you have found is not compatable with Vista, it's about 10 years old.
Hello Jonmore68... thanks for your information. I will take a look at both later. Yes, Photodraw is old - but that's probably why I like it!! I know my way around it pretty well. ... I am beginning to think I am not liking Vista much!! Thanks again for your help.... B
