In what i have seen over the years Webshots is a poorly written program.

    My files are stored the same except that the data album contains a "collections" along with the albums containing pictures.
    Please see http//www.webshots.com/support/help/10302.html.
    These are the instructions that did not work for me.
    Thanks for hanging with me on this.  Bechap

      I'm not sure, what to tell you at this point. Maybe you should just start from the scratch, getting new bunch of pictures.

        Thanks again for hanging with me. I did find a way to get about 55 of the pictures into one of my new folders but that's out of 200 I left behind.

        You're right of course, it is time to move on and get new ones.
        I appreciate your time and at least you got me the program!
        Have a GREAT day!  Bechap

        Ello all,

        I know this may be redundant, but I have  had Webshots on three computers, including this one,  for some  unknown reason, and all the checks were done..... virus, spyware, etc..... I lost my desk top and icons and it would not run in any form of the safe mode, thusly neither would the system recovery.
        So (this is a Compaq 2007, Windows XP Media Edition) had a partition with a recovery programme, and it warned and stated  that all things would  be returned to  Factory specs..  I sighed and  said whatever makes it function again.....  so  I went with it.

        In the process of reinstalling the basic programmes,  which went  without issue,  webshots, consistently had a red window that gave two  choices,  saying  Webshots is already installed on this computer, 

        Choices:

        Repair  Webshots
        Uninstall Webshots

        Needless to say......  neither  worked as I could not install a Webshots Desktop to download any of the  countless photos  I had for  wall paper.

        It tells me  an exception  ....  cancel or debug....   neither has any results.....  I had a registry programme  search of  any remnants of  the install or programme.... and all it found was  in Administrate  downloads,  the install package.

        ANY HELP..
        I Miss my Webshots!!!! :(

        Thank you very much
