Microsoft Digital Image Suite on Win 10

I have been using Microsoft Digital Image Suite Anniversary Edition on my computer running Win. 10. However a factory reset removed it. In trying to reinstall, I get the message the IE6 is needed to run it.  Is there anyway I can continue to use this software with my Win10 64 bit platform? This program has been phenomenal  for the past 12 years and I want to continue with it rather than switch to another photo editing program.

    Thanks for such a quick response Robert. I'm going to be away for a couple of weeks but I'll try that as soon as I return and report back.:)

    Hello Danny, I seem to remember that the user is advised to first duplicate the image and save the original before editing begins. I do this even though MSD 9 automatically creates a working copy and saves the original at the top of the stack....belts and braces.

    This way you can make your selection, go to the drop down menu and choose crop which has a few more choices, e.g. invert selection, etc. Assuming you are selecting something from the middle of the image the surrounding stuff will be lost ( well actually it can be retrieved but that's another story). You will then save-as your selection and basically you essentially have a new image that you can do whatever you want with. When you open another image the part-image will go to the stack and you can drag and drop it onto the new background.

    Flatten and save regularly, I got into the habit as my first PC had only 128mb RAM & 8 Gb HDD but it worked well through four PCs upgrades until MS interfered.

    I have had to install the Virtual thing which is not a great solution.

    I'm one of the lucky ones. MS Digital Image Suite was on my machine when I upgraded and it still works well. I have Corel Paintshop, Gimp and Photoshop Elements but still find myself going back to Digital Image Suite because it is in most respects very easy to use. But I do have one problem and I wonder if anyone can help me with it. When I use the selection tools, such as edge finder, I can see no way to save the selected image I have created with that (and the other selection tools.) I realise that the fault must be mine and the solution must be simple but I can't find it with the help within the program or the hard copy manual I have to go with the software. Please help someone - please.

    Danny

    Hola, robertMCConnell2, estoy tratando de resolver el mismo problema y de acuerdo a lo que indica JanAntal el 8 de julio, puedo entender que se puede instalar el programa en una máquina Virtual, por ejemplo "Oracle VM VirtualBox", .. después de instalarla y verla funcionar, instalas Total Uninstall y respaldas o haces una copia de seguridad, ...

    Después de volver a instalar MDI 2006 en win10, y repite la instalación, se supone que así funciona. Hay que probar ... Saludos ..

    Actualización ... no me convenció usarlo en el emulador y seguimos intentando instalarlo, después de varios intentos para lograrlo ...

                                ------------------------

    Instale Microsoft Digital Image Suite en Windows 10

    * Primero cierre todos los programas en ejecución y abra documentos.

    * Haga doble clic en el archivo de configuración de Imagen Digital Suite de su disco original.

    * Si el control de cuentas de usuario le solicita que autorice, solo autorícelo.

    * Seleccione algunas opciones disponibles. Cuando dice "La actualización de Windows: Internet Explorer y las herramientas de Internet no se puede instalar en esta computadora. Este mensaje no se instala en las plataformas de 64 bits". Haga clic en el botón Aceptar para continuar.

    * Recibirá el segundo error habitual "El programa de instalación detectó que no se completó la instalación de Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0. Es posible que la instalación se haya cancelado o no haya tenido suficiente espacio libre en su disco". No haga clic en él.

    Vuelva a su escritorio, presione Win + X desde su teclado, haga clic en Apagar o cerrar sesión> Cerrar sesión.

    * La ventana 10 espera la intervención y no puede llevar a cabo la operación. Espere unos segundos para iniciar sesión nuevamente, haga clic en el botón Cancelar> Aceptar. Ahora la instalación funciona bien.

    >>> Gracias por los consejos <<<<<
