Hi Anishtiway,

Welcome to Microsoft Answers.

Unfortunately, Microsoft Photo editor cannot be transfered to windows 7. Paint is a feature in Windows 7 with which you can edit pictures. You can use Paint like a digital sketchpad to make simple pictures, creative projects, or to add text and designs to other pictures, such as those taken with your digital camera.

 Check the link "Getting started with Paint" http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Getting-started-with-Paint

    Sorry, but yes it does work. At least for me anyway. I have been using it in Win 7 for over 3 years. I upload Windows Essentials , and it wiped it out. Now I am trying to find somewhere to re-download it. It's the best photo editing tool I have ever used. I have never had a problem with it.

    ===============================================

    This is just a guess but maybe you still have the MS Photo Editor

    software and the problem is that the shortcut was corrupted.

    It may be worth a try to do a search for the executable file that

    launches MS Photo Editor.

    Search for :   PHOTOED.EXE
