Guest

Hi for some reason my Windows XP picture and fax viewer is no longer
functional.
If i rigth click a picture and try "open with" the pic and fax viewer" is
not an option.... i can´t find the program. The slide show function is also
not working. Is it possible to reinstal this program? How is this done?

To reinstall it:
Click on Start and click on Run. A textbox will open. Copy and paste the
following command in this textbox or type it in the textbox and then press
the Enter key.

REGSVR32 /i SHIMGVW.DLL

Note that in the above command there is a space between ...32 and /i and
there is a space between /i and SHI... You must have these spaces if you
type the command in the textbox.

The above assumes that you do have the file here:
C:Windows\System32\Shimgvw.dll
If this dll file is not there, search webzila.com to find it and copy it
there.
