Alternately, you can also use the camera app which comes preinstalled with Windows 10.

Let me know how it goes and you have a great day!

What was the actual operating system you were using Mediasmart Photo on?

You have posted Windows 10 above, but Mediasmart Photo only worked on Windows 7 and possibly 8.

If you upgraded from 7 to 10 and it carried over, it will most likely not work as a clean install. 

The download that The_Fossette pointed to is only an update to Mediasmart, not the actual installation files.

I will upload the install file for Mediasmart photo for you to try to install.

I had Windows 7 and then one day I must have hit install Windows 10 and it installed that. I am sure that I have used the Mediasmart since the update to Windows 10 but can not be sure.

If you first uninstall media smart from a system that was upgraded to windows 10 as Fossett suggested, then the update for media smart will not reinstall it.  Apparently you did not uninstall media smart. Also if you clean install Windows 10, you would have to try to install the full version, thus why I gave you the download link.

Glad its working now.
