Cass,
Sorry for late reply but I've been thinking about this one for a while.
So you can't for Windows Photo Gallery, does it allow you to do so for
Windows Live Photo Gallery? You did elevate to admin yea? I fear just doing
so from a regular admin account without elevating to full admin won't do (if
possible at all).
If that doesn't work than I'm stumped, can't try for myself as I'm still on
Windows XP (only has software DEP, which never gave me problems), I really
would have otherwise.
