Can anyone help with the what the security settings should be for photos on Internet Explorer?

Question

I think I might have messed it when I defraged my computer and scan disc. Because now there are certain photo albums of mine I can't get into to see
It is showing and empty box with a red "X" up in the left hand corner where the picture should be .
It was fine til then any sugesstions ??

Answer 1

I would check the file association for the file type (ie. jpeg, jpg, gif). I have seen this happen when the file is trying to open with Microsoft Photo Manager.

Open My compter > Tools > Folder Options > File Types tab. Find the file type and associate it to Microsoft Picture/Fax Viewer or a photo editor you have installed.


Lots of luck.

Answer 2

the red cross mean that the picture isn't there to display try this out open internet explorer click tools click internet options click on the advanced tab scroll down to multimedia (about half way down) make sure there's a tick in the show pictures box
by the way defrag and scandisk or checkdisk as it is now won't screw anything up they're essential tasks that have to be done about once a month

Answer 3

What internet web site is this? perhaps the area has a cookie put in on your browser that forestalls you from viewing the %. after a particular type of photos from that web site were seen try deleting some cookies and observe what takes position
