4.6.1: Context menu in Windows Explorer is gone
« on: May 29, 2009, 01:45:37 AM »
1. PM 4.5.4 on Windows XP SP3 was installed.
2. Installed PM 4.6.1 - everything fine - context menu (Open in Photo Mechanic...) in Windows Explorer was present.
3. Have seen, that PM 4.5.4 was still there, so deinstalled PM 4.5.4.
4. PM 4.6.1 did not start.
5. Reinstalled 4.6.1.

Now 4.6.1 is working, but the context menu (Open in Photo Mechanic...) in Windows Explorer is gone !!

Please Help
Peter

Now 4.6.1 is working, but the context menu (Open in Photo Mechanic...) in Windows Explorer is gone !!

Try installing PM 4.6.1 again.  If that doesn't work, contact our support folks at 503-547-2888 for direct help in this matter.

What part of the world do you live in?  I'll ask the support folks about your case.

Peter,

I live in Austria (Europe).

Contact me privately with your phone number and a range of an hour or two when you can be reached and I'll see that someone calls you to help you with this situation.

Please click on my name to the left of this message, then click on the 'personal message' link.  That's how you can send me a private message.
