I have lost the ability to rotate images in My pictures when using the photo viewer, I tried regsvr32 shimgvw.dll, but it did not help. Any ideas?

I also have lost the rotate functionality in the Image and Fax Viewer and
the right-click option (when in thumbnail view) of Windows Explorer. The
option is list to Rotate Clockwise and Counter Clockwise, but choosing
either option does nothing on screen or on disk. Something obviously got
rest, but how? And how do you fix this issue?
Any ideas?

Guys I have foind the solution, finally...
It is caused because you have downloaded pictures of an
aspect ration not compatible with XP. As a result the
first time you tried to rotate on of this pics you would
have got soem message 'loss of picture quality, do you
want to continue?... blah blah blah..' You will then have
inadvertantly instructed your PC not to let you rotate any
pictures of that unuasual aspect ratio. This was really
doing my head in as I could rotate some pics but not
others..
Anyway the fix is...
Open one of the pictures you can not rotate by double
clicking on it. (Simply viewing it as a thumbnail or film
strip won't work). Now hold down the 'ctrl' key and
click the red 'x' button (i.e. close button) top left of
the image. The PC will then ask you words to the effect
of 'are you sure want to reset all image rotate settings?
Say yes, and voila problem solved.
If this helped, let me know?
