Photo Gallery can't open my pictures

Everytime I try to view a picture, a message pops up in Photo Gallery:
Photo Gallery can't open this picture or video. This file format is not
supported, or you don't have the latest updates to Photo Gallery.

This is a new laptop and Windows was preinstalled...I can't find any updates
and all of my pictures are in the JPEG format...how can I fix this

RE: Photo Gallery can't open my pictures

Hi Michaella, see my post. Vista destroyed every one of my jpg files. I
hadn't looked at them in a long time but they all got currupted. We are
talking years worth of pictures. And when I did my regular backup, the
corrupted files went with it, so I got screwed again. Rob.
