hi,
i rotate my photos with either Nikon view or Adobe Photoshop, using
their mult-rotate functions in their browsers.
When i 'view' them using those viewers, the photos are fine, but when
viewing them in Explorer they're still 'un-rotated' for lack of a
better word, which is annoying.
....yes i've refreshed...
I rotate them in the above programs because i'm under the impression
they'll do a better job at minimizing the quality loss upon rotation?

But it's a pain they don't follow thru to Explorer? Why?

Okay...you rotated the images...
And you viewed the rotated version...
But the burning question is...
Did you save the change?

When you rotate in Windows Picture
and Fax Viewer they stay rotated...this
is not the case in all editing software.

no, i did not open each and every one and 'save' them. I shouldn't have
to..
You would think that Photoshop should 'keep' the changes if you did it
with that premiere editor's browser function.

Should i be rotating them with MS pix & fax viewer? any major loss of
quality to do that?
 
You can rotate with MS pix & fax viewer with no loss in quality unless the
image is from an old camera with low pixel resolution. You can verify this by
making a copy of one of your image and rotate the copy (making a copy of an
original does not involve loss of quality).

Some programs require that you save
the changes. If you do not...the file remains
unedited.

It's your choice but unless you have a low
resolution camera I doubt that you would ever
detect any visual quality loss from a simple
rotation.

Try an experiment...make a copy of one of
your images and rotate one of them 20 times...
then compare it to the unrotated version.
Also...try printing both versions and see if you
can detect a quality loss.
