Unfortunately I haven’t run across this for sp2010 yet. If/when I do I will be sure to update this post.

This works a treat on Office 2007 machines. Thanks! Any ideas how to do the same on Office 2003 machines? I’ve tried “detect and repair” which is the equivalent of Office 2007 diagnostics but to no avail.

Had same problem, fixed by running Microsoft Office Diagnostics Tool. It’s under START -> Programs -> Microsoft Office -> Microsoft Office Tools -> Microsoft Office Diagnostics.

It takes about 5 mins to run, depending upon your machine. Should say 1 or more errors fixed.

@Charlie – Unfortunately the Office Picture Manager does not launch, instead you see the “normal” upload multiple control, which is the one with the tree view on the left and the explorer view on the right. I have not been able to successfully bring the Office Picture Manager back to life, but at least am able to use this as a workaround in the meantime. If you come across a full-scale solution, please share!

I have been having this problem for months.

Does the office picture manager return to functionality after you unregister oisctrl.dll?

TIA
