MS Picture it 7

dlj1935 said:

I have been running MS Picture it 7 just fine on Windows 10 until a few days ago. The program starts like all is ok but as soon as I try to load a picture It says "Picture It! 7.0 has stopped working." "A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close & notify you if a solution is found." About 1 min later it say it made a compatibility change and will do so when ever I run the program again. But it still does not run. Any help appreciated.

Hi dlj1935 and welcome to Tenforums.

I have MS Picture It! Express 7.0 and it's running fine, without any compatibility modifications. But, I have it on a clean install of W10, not an upgrade. Your system specs say OS=W8.1, so I assume you're on a upgraded machine, yes? Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling the program? Also, I know the plugin function of Teamviewer has messed with that program in the past, so it needs to be disabled, if you have that installed on your system.

Yes I am running a Windows 10 upgrade and also TeamViewer 11. Can I disable TeamViewer 11 without un-installing?
Thanks for the reply.

Yes, you need to disable the Quick Connect feature:

Extras>Options>Advanced - Show Advanced Options
Click Configure



Make sure this box is not selected.

I really appreciate the help. Once I disabled the quick connect button all is working like it should.
Thanks again.

Sounds good Dave. You can go ahead and mark the thread as solved.

My ie6setup.exe replaces the true ie6setup.exe that is generating our problem.

I am not a C or Assembler developer so I have written a small BAT file to create the needed registry key and I have used a free converter to get an EXE file.

So yes, it opens a command window.

No Windows system from 7 up needs IE 6!
