HP MediaSmart Photo Editor

[Rosigopal]

Product: HP Pavilion

Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Recently I have upgraded my OS to windows 10(64-bit). I have an LG 34” curved wide screen monitor. My HP MediaSmart Photo Editor always opens in maximize mode, occupies the entire monitor screen and no minimize, maximize or close buttons  are available  that the cursor can access. I tried several widows keyboard short cuts also with no result.

Please troubleshoot.!

Thank you,

Gopal

HP MediaSmart Photo Editor is old software - it is not intended for use in Windows 10.

You will likely have to "move on" to a supported software / application.

There are options that range from the simple (Windows Photos which comes with Windows 10 or can be downloaded from the Microsoft Store) to the more complete photo viewing / editing software (free)  Irfanview   (Example / details on request).

You are welcome.

MediaSmart software was nice software as I recall.

It was missed (and likely is still missed) by those who used and loved it.

Just in case you decide to take a look...

This is not "plug and play" software... it is, however, quite brilliant for free software and does quite a bit for those able / willing to take the time to learn its secrets.

 Irfanview provides an exceptional software experience that can be used for a variety of scan and print tasks, including the “Mirror” or horizontal flip function plus several other options not found elsewhere.

• Create a Restore Point (optional, recommended)
• Download the appropriate version (32bit or 64bit) of the program from the Website and install the program
• Additional information at the website, including:  FAQ

NOTES

• Both 32bit and 64bit versions for Windows are available.
• Irfanview is also available as an Windows 10 Application from the Microsoft Store

For example,

Irfanview 64bit version – Information and Download

Software and All Plugins for 64bit version:  https://www.fosshub.com/IrfanView.html

Includes Plugin for creating Multiple-page PDF files for images (Poster or large paper printing)

Includes access (where available) to Scan with HP Twain > Adjust settings > Save

How to find Help within the Irfanview software

Once installed, open the software > tab Help

Example help entry:

Vertical/Horizontal Flip

• Click on the Image Menu, then Vertical Flip. The image will turn upside-down. The left/right orientation will stay the same.
• Click on the Image Menu, then Horizontal Flip. The image will turn side-to-side, as in a mirror.

Note: The effect can be used on a smaller portion (rectangle selection) of an image, as well as the entire image.
