Photoworks problem

[jdt020471]

When I run SW I get the following message:
----
Photoworks : Warning

Failed to find the data directory containing Photoworks sample images.

Check Photoworks and Solidworks are correctly installed.
----
I have re-installed 3 times and I still get this message.

Please help.

Did you install with anti-virus turned off?

You could try installing the install cd and searching for the files on the cd through explorer.

Did you do an upgrade or new install of the version you are working on.... what ever that maybe?

Perhaps purging the registry of everything related to SW on the next reinstall attempt might help?

Scott posted some FAQs in case you need to perform a reinstall. I'm considering doing so myself, since my original installation of 2005 was from the downloads. (I now have the discs.) The FAQs include deleting the proper registry entries before reinstallation.
