Photo Gallery Missing Files


hi slartybart
we're almost there...yes!!
windows 2012 essential, installed all correctly, it is now found in my program & features. I wasn't sure what the next step would be. But i did check to see if Photo Gallery would work, but i received these errors which i have attached. I also attempted to download the file that was needed which i chose the first one, but after reading the details and OS requirement i was unsure if it.

 

Photo Gallery Missing Files


hi slartybart
thanks again so much for working with me.
ok. i have completed step 1. and the text notepad is attached. 2nd. Photo gallery is an organizer and all my photos has been backed up to an external drive, if i missed anything it won't bother me much as long as this problem is fixed. 3rd. Iwl new search results 0522.txt didn't have wlarp so i downloaded the one you attached and received this error upon installing which is also attached. Based on these previous steps i didn't go any further as to not create more problems.


wl new search results 0522.txt

Thanks, almost there - you're doing great!

After you have renamed the folders

download cCleaner (free)
install - remove the checkboxes from any extra software offered (Google Chrome for example)
Run cCleaner
Select Registry
Select all entry types




Press the Scan for issues button
Select all in the scan results panel
Press the fix selected issues... button
Notes: You'll probably see a bunch of Net 1 and eHome Firewall entries - don't worry about them.
Both are references to depreciated features in Win10.

I've never had to use a cCleaner reg backup, but ... it's better to have it than wish you had it *Wink
Answer yes to the back up dialog - remember where you save the file.
Press the Fix all button

Run the scan a 2nd time and follow the same steps
exit cCleaner
Restart your machine

There's one question I have left
Where are those PhotoGallery and Mail folders I see in your search results. They're not Windows Live, just the names

If they're in an xxx Apps folder, then they're most likely a Windows Universal Platform (WUP) app, not Windows Live applets

Post another search (details view, sort by name) - that would help.

If you're sure that all Windows Live folders are renamed - you can go ahead without waiting for me to confirm - you seem competent *Wink

The next step is to install Windows Live Photogallery from the offline installer (post# 2) - choose PhotoGallery only for now
Net 3.5 is required for Windows Live - the installer should ask and offer to download. You can also get it in Programs and Features > turn Windows features on > Select Net 3.5 (sb at the top)
