Hi,

all of a sudden ( seamingly after updating Windows XP SP2 with september
hotfixes, but not tested just before) i can no more open multiple files at
once with neither photosphop, nor MS photo editor etc when I do a multiple
files selection inexplorer.
Opening one at one is ok. Same if I launch the program, then from within it
open files.
When I select 2 or more : mouse shows classical wait sand... then nothing
happens !

Any idea why this behaviour and how to correct ?

The programs function as normal when I select one image then right-click
edit/open ...

TIA to all of you !

Found : offending entry in registry is

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\MagicISO]
@="{DB85C504-C730-49DD-BEC1-7B39C6103B7A}"

Have installed MagicISO 5.5 demo this morning ! Didn't think that could have
an effect on jpeg/gif and so on files !
But removing it solves my problem. Reintroducing it makes it reappear !!

Strange behaviuor !!!
