| | Displaying file in explorer Hi, I m using HP photo and scanning software. In this when I select any photo and press enter to open it gives an error. If I select the photo and by the drop down arrow select that particular photo which I want to open, it works. All my photos are in JPG format. I had faced the same problem in Win XP but I could solve it by displaying the full file name in explorer with extension then it was opening. In vista, I m not able to find this option. Please help. Thanks n best regards, --- Athar Sagri |

Please help. Thanks n best regards, you know the cause is HP's poorly written software. HP is known for this. Contact HP tech support for help or look on the HP forums to see if anyone has solved the problem. Before you do that, check on HP's website to see if there is updated software for your device. If you installed the device from CD, there may be updated drivers which will solve your issue. Malke -- MS-MVP Elephant Boy Computers - Don't Panic! http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/#FAQ |
