Whenever I go to open any image file such as "pic.bmp" by right clicking then choosing "open with PSP9", it loads PSP9 fine then I get an alert box from windows which says:

"Windows cannot find [path\filename]. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. To search for a file, click the Start button, and then click Search."

This is getting really annoying as in order to use PSP9 I have to load it first then open my image file by clicking "open" and then I have to find the folder it is in and this all takes time when you have multiple folders and sub-folders - it would be so much quicker doing the way that doesn't work! Also I know it can work because on my other pc I have no problem. I've tried installing all fixes, patches and updates but to no avail. Also I know the image file works because when I choose "open with paint" it opens fine. Thanks in advance.
 
I have exactly the same problem. It started with v.9 and continues with v.10...which leads me to think that PSP 9 reset something in the registry when first installed. I uninstalled both 9 and 10 and reinstalled v.7 and it works fine. Sure would like to know whats up with this...
Thanks, woodboat
