Here is how to install and use Windows Picture Manager in Windows 10
Here is how
to install and use Windows Picture
Manager in Windows 10. In general on Windows 10 this applications or
programs that often used to edit photos somehow disappears from the menu
options >Open With. Especially
after updating Microsoft Office to 2013
version, the application can no longer be found. Then how the solution?
For users of
Windows 7 must be very familiar with Windows Picture Manager application or
program especially for those who often do (basic) image editing like crop, compress, white balance, coloring,
etc..
The Windows Picture Manager (WPM) program is
a built-in software from Microsoft Office package, so when we install Microsoft
Office on the computer then the WPM app will also be installed automatically, except
with advanced settings may be possible (to uninstall).
Based on the
experience of ri-techno.com team
when this program is no longer exist we felt something is missing, although this
is not our daily program to use but the fact is when the program is no longer
available some of our works in windows 10 a little hampered, including to give
the finishing touch for image that will be uploaded to ri-techno.com .
Although the
features provided are standard or even basic
editing features, but it seems that this program is still have many active
users, as evidenced when the program is removed from Microsoft Office updates
to the 2013 and 2016 versions many people are looking for information to get
the program back, to stay using the Windows
Picture Manger application.
How to Install and Use Windows Picture Manager in Windows 10
Here's how
to install and reuse Windows Picture Manager in Windows 10 or in the latest
Microsoft Office.
There are 2 different way that you can choose and
the concept of both ways is to use Microsoft applications that still have the Windows
Picture Manager application in it, and the outcome is to install the WPM
application only.
Tutorial 1
How To Install Windows Picture Manger (via MS Office Installation File)
This first tutorial can only be finished if you still have the CD or installation file of MS. Office 2010 version or older (2007). If you do not have Ms. Office installation file (version 2007 or 2010) then just skip this first tutorial, just go to the second tutorial (Tutorial 2).
- Open /run the installation file (setup.exe) of Ms. Office 2007 or 2010.
- Enter the product key or installation key of the product.
- Click >Continue button.
- You will be asked to choose between "Install Now" or "Customize". Select "Customize".
- In the Office tools\Microsoft Office Picture Manager section, click the option button (down arrow) and select "Run from My Computer".
- In the same way on the previous step, change all (except Microsoft Office Picture Manager) listed in the list to "Not Available".
- Click >Install Now button. Done!
After the
application is finished the installation of the program that we select above,
then the Windows Picture Manger
application can be instantly used without having to restart the computer first.
But if the option "Open with
.." still do not find the WPM option, it is advisable to restart the computer / laptop right
after the installation finished.
Tutorial 2
How to Install Windows Picture Manger (via MS Office SharePoint Designer)
The second tutorial
is almost similar to the first way, just using a different media or
application. On this tutorial we do not have to use the Installation files of Ms. Office version 2007 or 2010, we
just need to run the Ms. Office
SharePoint Designer program that we can get for free from the official Microsoft page.
- Download SharePointDesigner 2007 app here. (296 MB)
- Open / run the downloaded SharePoint Designer app.
- You will be asked to choose between "Install Now" or "Customize". Select "Customize". Or if there is no Customize option, then choose "Add / Remove program".
- In the Office tools\Microsoft Office Picture Manager section, click the option button (down arrow) and select "Run from My Computer".
- In the same way in the previous step above, change all (except Microsoft Office Picture Manager) indicators listed on the list to "Not Available".
- Click the >Continue button. Done!
After we
click the >Continue button then
the application will install Windows Picture Manager program only on the
computer because we allow to install only WPM applications only at the settings
in step-4 and 5 above.
Similar with
the Tutorial 1, this tutorial will also provide results instantly without having
to restart after the install process is complete. But if the application is
still cannot be found in the "Open
with .." on the right-click menu, it is advisable to restart the computer first.
Alternative applications other than Windows Picture Manager
Actually we
can still edit photos or images without using Windows Picture Manager, yup!
Particularly in Windows 10 we can edit the image through the standard Windows app
image viewer (Photos).
If we open
the image via the default Windows Photos
app we will find the "Edit"
option in the tools bar section. In the Edit feature there are almost identical
features that exist in WPM.
If you just
want to dothe basic editing like crop,
rotate, coloring, lighting, etc then actually Photos App is enough for on windows 10 (Photos), without install
Windows Picture Manager. But if you want to enjoy a more completed feature,
then Windows Picture Manager is the solution.
