The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

unable to rotate images in Windows Picture and Fax Viewer

Asked by stu29 in Windows XP Operating System

Hello Experts,

I have a number of images stored on a network drive in an enterprise environment.  My end-user has full rights to the images and the containing folder.  This user is unable to rotate the images with Windows Picture and Fax Viewer (WPFV) either from a right-click or inside the application.  She is running Win XP SP2 and Office 2007.

I have done an RSOP on the folder and images for the user and confirmed that the user has full rights including special rights both NTFS and AD.  I have setup a test user that has the same rights and tested on a test machine with the same result.  I can rotate the images as a domain admin.  The user can rotate the images if she first copies them to her local machine.  She can then overwrite the original with the rotated image on her desktop.

I have un-registered and re-registered WPFV with rundll32.exe /u shimgvw.dll.  My colleague was able to rotate the images on a clean build with the affected users account.  He claims that Office 2003 may be the issue, although I tested on a machine with Office 2003 and was unable to rotate the images.

I am unable to determine what is causing this headache.  And yes, I know WPFV ruins image quality.  I've explained this to the end-user as well.  It's now a matter of principle.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Jacob
