My parents ran into this same issue this afternoon. After a bunch of trial and error over the phone, here's the solution:

1. Go to the Start Menu and open Computer (used to be called My Computer).
2. Browse to c:\Program Files (x86)\Nova\Print Artist Platinum
3. Right-click on Print Artist.exe and create a shortcut
4. Drag the shortcut to the desktop
5. Double-click on the new shortcut to start the application.
6. Delete the non-working shortcut.

Since I was working with my parents over the phone, some of the file names may be slightly incorrect. However, this should be close enough to get you working.

Hello,

Start-->All Programs->Your application. If it works, create a new shortcut on desktop. If it does not work, the application has been uninstalled, or it folder has been displaced.

You can use Add/Remove program in control panel to verify if it is still installed.

To create shortcut, point mouse cursor in a free area, Right Click >>New>>Short Cut. Click the submenu. A create shortcut window appears and you use the browse button to travel to the application folder in Programs Files, and select the executable file (has an extension .exe) and click OK.

Hope it helps

Try this:

Find the MS photo program on your hard drive (I believe, but am not sure, it is located here: C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Photo Editor.Exe Create a shortcut (right click on Photo Editor.exe and choose create shortcut) to the program. Then, after the shortcut is created, RIGHT click on the shortcut and click on properties. In the properties windows that pops up, find "run probram MAXIMIXED and make sure that is checked." then, click on OK a couple of times until you can see the "shortcut to photo editor.exe" shortcut. Double-click on that shortcut, which should start photo editor maximized.

Woo Hoo.

Now close photo editor.

Hopefully from this point on every time you open photo editor it will open maximized because you have just tweaked the registry to do so...

Take care,
Rob

Respectfully,

How are you creating the shortcut? If you right click on your desktop and click on New -> Shortcut, then tell it where the actual program is located, it should work everytime. A simpler solution is to find the program in your start menu and simply right click and drag it onto the desktop then choose to create a shortcut here.

Restored factory setting & working fine
