There are many posters like me on the internet that love ONLY the old, basic, reliable, simple to use, PhotoEd application. Microsoft phased it out in stages long ago. When queried, inadequate responses include:
* Why don't you try "X" instead? It's
* Try the Troubleshooter
* Provide me a bunch of information about your system
* What error messages do you get
* How did you install it
The issue is, Microsoft knows full well what the issue is. All the Q&A is just a smokescreen.
For those of us who love PhotoEd we know to copy the folder of PhotoEd files that we have saved to the 32 bit pathname, namely:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\PhotoEd
In the past this was enough; launch the executable and PhotoEd works. But with the latest Windows 10 the registry keys have been removed as well. Most of us consider it risky to edit registry keys to fix the problem - even if we knew what they were.
So, my request is simple. How could we convince Microsoft to facilitate return of the good old PhotoEd that works SO WELL for us? For extra credit, just cut to the chase and give us an installation package so that we don't have to keep saving the files ourselves, remembering the pathname where they go, and/or editing the registry?
I would really appreciate it!
