Strange Cover Page Issue w/Fax & Scan

I've tried disabling and re-enabling WFS to no avail. If you look at the thumbnails, the first one (WFS/Tools/Cover Pages) has all the usual cover pages plus my one personal one and they display correctly if I open them but they wont open in WFS as a new fax if I click open.

If, however, I click "New Fax" (thumbnail2) the drop-down cover pages are all blank, and not only that, the list appears twice, so I have the choice of twice the number of blank cover pages.

How can I repair WFS?

Re: Strange Cover Page Issue w/Fax & Scan

Cover pages common to all users are located at:

C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows NT\MSFax\Common Coverpages\en-US

Personal cover pages are at:

C:\Users\(username)\Documents\Fax\Personal CoverPages

The drop down box on a new fax shows both sets. Beyond that, you've lost me
as to what the issue is. The cover page, itself, is only viewable in the
editor.

Thanks. I realised afterwards that Cover pages aren't visible except in the editor. I don't know why I suddenly thought otherwise.
