Hi
The Photo Gallery in Windows Live displayed the error “ An error is preventing the photo or video from being displayed” followed by the code error ”0×80010108” When I tried to view an image file via the link in Start > Recent Items or from Jump List.
But the exact same image opens just fine when I double click it.
What should I do to rectify this?
