Go to Start, run, type "sfc/scannow" within the command and follow the on-screen steps to go. This will automatically check and replace the missing, broken, corrupt system files. See if this fixes the problem.

If not, the problem generally lies with Windows Live Essentials. Goto the Control Panel, Add and Remove programs or Programs and Features: then locate and remove/uninstall Windows Live Essentials.

Consider NOT connecting your camera to your computer.
The best way to download pictures from your camera to your computer involves removing the memory card from the camera and plugging it into a card reader (either built-in to the computer or connected via USB or FireWire). This is likely to be faster than connecting the camera to the computer, and won't run down your camera's batteries.

Once the card is plugged in, it will appear to your computer as a removable drive. You can use the operating system's drag&drop facility to copy pictures from the card to the computer's hard drive, the same way you copy any other files. Or you can use any photo cataloging program, such as Windows Photo Gallery or Picasa.

Hi Thomas:
Live Upload is a new add-in for Windows Live Photo Gallery that lets you upload pictures from the desktop on to your Facebook account(s).

This is very useful if you have multiple accounts on Facebook and need to share the same set of photographs across both your Facebook accounts.

For instance, both you and your wife may have separate accounts on Facebook but need to share that same set of vacation pictures with your own circle of private Facebook friends. Why duplicate the work when you can upload pictures and videos to both albums in one go.




Once you install the Facebook plugin, select the pictures you want to send to Facebook and then choose "Live Upload to Facebook" from the Publish menu.

Windows Live Gallery already supports publishing photos to Flickr and with this plug-in, you can easily share the same photos across both Flickr and Facebook. It will also transfer the associate people tags with your photos.

Hope this helps; also keep in mind that your feedback is important and I'll appreciate your time and consideration if you leave some testimonial comment about this answer.

Welcome to FixYa! About "Error 0x8001010" this currently an ongoing issue for Windows Live Gallery whether its Vista or 7. I suggest using the old Windows Photo Viewer when trying to open the files on your cd. This should work. Hope this helps! Thank you for using FixYa!

Hello,

This error is generally faced with Windows Live Photo Gallery when viewing pictures from external devices such as cameras or memory cards. There are different known causes to this error, among which, one is an installation problem of Windows Live, but the uninstalling and reinstalling does not seem to fix this issue.

However the solution is quite simple. You have to import your pictures from your device onto your computer through Windows Live Photo Gallery (you will have this option when device is connected in the autorun menu).

Once the pictures imported, you will be able to view them. Be careful to keep the original photos on your device in case this solution does not fix this issue.

If problem persists, I recommend opting for another picture viewer program.

Is this only a problem when you try to view your pictures with Windows Live Photo Gallery?
If so, then it is best for you to post in the Windows Live Help for Photo Gallery.
They have experts there that deal only with Windows Live Products.
