This message may be usefull to someone..
Thanks to Photos newsgroup I found solution for lost functionality (jpeg files: summary tab in properties came back and Scanner and Camera wizard: autoplay came back) by running regsvr32 shimgvw.dll
BUT...
after this I lost system sounds! System beep changed, startup, exit and other events sounds stopped playing
Sounds and music through other applications worked fine (Control panel sounds themes, CD, DVD, Media Player etc)
I started searching in Music newsgroup and finally I found something that works by editing Registry:
If you are comfortable with editing the registry, run regedit and navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER, if the (Default) is blank in the "Data" column, right-click and delete the entry. Xp will immediately rebiuld it with the correct value "Value not set"
I hope that the problems stop here and nothing else will come up
Finally, I want to thank everybody who spend time reading other people's problems and suggesting solutions.
