| Guest | RE-Import Pictures Using Windows? Does anyone know how to import pictures more than once? Deleting the folder where they were imported originally doesn't reset the flag that they have been imported already - so you get the "No new pictures on device prompt". I've been having corruption issues and need to reload older photos to test a possible fix - incase you were wondering why I want reload stuff... Thanks - Eric |

C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\Microsoft\ Windows Photo Gallery\Pictures.pd4 The file can also be found with an Advanced Search for pd4. Go to...Start / Search / Advanced Search. Check the box..."Include non-indexed, hidden, and system files" Enter pd4 in the Name field and left click the Search button. If you catalog lots of images, making regular backup copies of your Pictures.pd4 file would be an excellent idea. If corruption develops, just replace the current ..pd4 file with your backup. If you have to restore your system or move the images to a different computer...the original locations of the images would need to be duplicated. -- John Inzer MS Picture It! - Digital Image MVP Digital Image Highlights and FAQs http://tinyurl.com/aczzp Notice This is not tech support I am a volunteer Solutions that work for me may not work for you Proceed at your own risk |
