CAUSE

This issue may occur if one of the following conditions is true:

  • The project that you are saving has become corrupted. (You receive an error message about the Picore6.dll file if Picture It! 2002 cannot read the project file correctly to save it. The file is corrupted beyond repair.)
  • Your video card is using outdated drivers, or it does not meet the system requirements to run the program.
  • The installation of the program is corrupted.
  • You try to access a file with an extremely long file name that is nested in a long path.


RESOLUTION

To resolve this issue, use the following methods in the order that they appear.

Method 1: Test the Project for File Corruption

To test for file corruption, you have to open another project. It is best to select one of the templates included with Picture It!. In the new project, try to save, print, and add pictures. If the issue does not occur in the new project, you should suspect file corruption in your other file. If the issue does occur, continue to the other methods that are listed.

If the project file is corrupted, re-create the project.

Method 2: Remove and Reinstall Internet Explorer

Important Do not use this method if you are using Microsoft Windows XP. By default, Internet Explorer 6 is preinstalled in all versions of Windows XP.
