Image resizer Powertoy broken with SP2

D

David Shorthouse

Hey folks,

SP2 appears to break the Image Resizer Powertoy for XP. I assume this
might be a DCOM permission issue but I can't find where the Powertoy is
listed under DCOM Config in Component Services. Does anyone know how to fix
this?

Sorry, can't be DCOM I guess....not a network application. Still can't get
this to work, though.

Dave,

If you've already installed the Powertoy and the Resize Pictures
context-menu option does not appear, run these commands from Start, Run
dialog:

regsvr32 shimgvw.dll
regsvr32 %Systemroot%\system32\phototoys.dll
