If you made a New Topic of it, as, for example, a little tip.....<br /> Then it would be seen more :) </p> http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/slide-show-stoped-working#post-76420 Tue, 03 Mar 2009 17:08:27 +0000 Fraggy 76420@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ <p>The issue seems to be still occurring, I see fresh questions (in 2009) on this subject in other forums and the previous responses did not provide a fix or workaround. If what I provided is in error then please delete my posts. :) </p> http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/slide-show-stoped-working#post-76417 Tue, 03 Mar 2009 17:00:57 +0000 LH 76417@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ <p>Fraggy.

The slideshow program obviously works. </p> http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/slide-show-stoped-working#post-5937 Sun, 30 Dec 2007 14:21:39 +0000 cmb 5937@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ <p>Hi Mike</p> <p>i tried cleaning temp folders, i defraged and did a system restore. nothing worked. the slide show icon just wont work, the only way i can do a slide show is to click on a photo, open it then click on the centre buttom "play a slide show" that workes, but i just cant get the slide show icon to work and cant work out what the prob is, all<br /> the other icons ie preview,print ect all work.</p> <p>Regards<br /> Carolyn </p> http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/slide-show-stoped-working#post-5663 Wed, 26 Dec 2007 14:56:45 +0000 michael 5663@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ <p>Right. In this situation, I would do a disk cleanup to clear out the temp folders, and then if it doesn't work, I would do a System Restore back to a time when it did work.</p> <p>--<br /> Mike </p> http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/slide-show-stoped-working#post-5049 Fri, 14 Dec 2007 23:26:17 +0000 cmb 5049@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ <p>when i go into my picture folder and click slide show nothing happens, it was ok a few days ago, not sure it one of the updates caused it, i added a canon 4400f scanner a couple of dayd ago so it could be this that caused it. my old scanner wouldnt work on vista.i have found the prob with vista is i get 1 prob sorted only to find i have another pop up. has anyone had this prob? any idea how to sort it?</p> <p>carolyn </p>
