I unistanall and reinstalled and still having same problem.  I imported all of my photos into Photosmart Essentials 3.5 and yet when I go in to view and edit them the folder and subfolders are grayed out and so I cannot open them.  It is very frustrating.  I know they imported becaus I can see them in another view that shows the folders are all chekcd in the boxes. Yet I cannot access these photos to edit and print. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I do not have the CD of my HP Photosmart  printer (1315. ) My photo program by HP messed up in my PC so deleted it . Now this new program only works with that softwear. So can't use photo creation.  What can I do?

I tried your solution and it worked out fine. But I had to install the HP Photosmart Essentials 3.5 first and then
uninstallt from the Control Panel and restart the computer.
On HP web page I found a link to HP Photo Creations where I could download the program free o charge, Thanks för your advice

inadvertantly deleted photosmart essentials for hp4400 printer/scanner, how do I re-install?

Is your printer the 4400 series photo smart or the deskjet? Here is a link if the printer is a Deskjet:
