Missing "Copy to CD/DVD" in picture tasks

[Guest]

I am trying to copy pictures from My Pictures, but the "copy to CD/DVD" is
not listed in the tasks under My Tasks. Have I deleted it, or more
importantly, how am I able to restore it or reinstall it?

Click on Start, click on Run and type the following in the opening textbox:

REGSVR32 SHIMGVW.DLL

And press the Enter key.

Note that there is a space between .32 and SHI..



This should take a second to run and the command should be back under
Picture Tasks.

I tried your suggestion and it said it was successful, and yet, I still do
not have Copy to Cd in my Picture Tasks in My Pictures. Any other
suggestions?

If this is so, open My Computer and right click on your CD drive listed
there. Then click on Properties and click on the Recording tab in the
opening window. Then click on "Enable...."

Sally, did this last step fix your problem? Because I have the same problem
(the Copy to CD not appearing under Picture Tasks)
