Windows Printer and Fax Program

[Guest]

Is there a way to extract the program "Windows Print and Fax Viewer" from the
Win Xp Cd?

The Picture and Fax Viewer is actually a .DLL file that's launched by
rundll32.exe. The full command for launching it is:

"rundll32.exe <drive>:\WINDOWS\system32\shimgvw.dll,ImageView_Fullscreen %1"

I dont understand the need for this as it is available in windows by itself.
If you really want to extract it, trying coping rundll32.exe & shimgvw.dll
from <windir>\system32
directory and run something like this

rundll32.exe shimgvw.dll,ImageView_Fullscreen c:\temp\test.tif

Note it is very syntactically sensitive, and you need to get it correct.
