Re: Photo info plug-in not working

John,
I looked again and you are correct. I don't know how I missed it earlier.
If I don't get a response telling me how to fix the plug-in so it works, I'll
delete it.
Thanks again for your reply
Loren

I installed a Microsoft Explorer Plug-in from this Microsoft site:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/digitalphotography/prophoto/photoinfo.mspx

When I right click on a photo in Windos Picture and Fax Viewer, an
error message comes up saying "A file system I/O error occured.
Please check that the files are not locked and that you have
appropriate permission".

There's no guidance on the Microsoft site, no FAQ, nor any assistance
at all.

I've been the sole user of my pc since I bought it, and have never
had a problem accessing any photos or anything else on it.

I think the plug-in could be useful if I can get it to work, but if
not, I'd like to uninstall it. But it doesn't appear in startup nor
in the control panel add/delete programs, so I'm at a loss on how to
delete it.

Does anyone here have any suggestions on getting it to work, or if
not, how to delete this plug-in?
==============================
Sorry, I cannot offer a solution for
the error.

On my system...the tool is listed in
Add-Remove Programs as:
"Microsoft Photo Info"
