Windows Explore suddenly stopped letting me view photos in filmstrip mode.
The option to view as filmstrip just dissapeared, but other options such as
view as thumbnail, list, ete are still there. Can anyone help?

Click to expand...
==================================
Try this, maybe it will restore the option:

go to...Start / Run and type:

"REGSVR32 SHIMGVW.DLL"
(without the quotes)(Yes, there's
a space between 2 and S)

Click...OK.

A dialog box should report the following:

"DllRegisterServer in SHIMGVW.DLL succeeded"

1. Right-click on your Folder and choose Properties.
2. Click Customize tab.
3. Under What kind of folder do you want? choose "Photo Album (best for
fewer files)
4. You can also check "Also apply this template to all subfolders" option,
if you want FilmStrip for every Sub-Folder.
