ACCOUNTPICTURE-MS Troubleshooting
Frequent ACCOUNTPICTURE-MS Opening Issues
Microsoft Windows 8 Disappeared
If you attempt to load your ACCOUNTPICTURE-MS file, you experience a message such as "Can't Open ACCOUNTPICTURE-MS Files". When this happens, it is commonly due to Microsoft Windows 8 missing in %%os%%. Your operating system cannot associate your ACCOUNTPICTURE-MS with Microsoft Windows 8, so double-clicking the file won't work.
Tip: When another ACCOUNTPICTURE-MS application is installed, you can choose to open it by selecting "Show Apps" and using that program.
Obsolete Version of Microsoft Windows 8
In some cases, you might have a newer (or older) version of a Windows 8 Account Picture File file that is unsupported by your installed application version. Download the latest Microsoft Windows 8 version from the Microsoft Corporation website to ensure you have the correct one installed. This problem is predominately due to having a Windows 8 Account Picture File file version that was created by a newer version of Microsoft Windows 8 than what you have installed on your PC.
Tip: You can sometimes get hints about the right program version by right-clicking on the ACCOUNTPICTURE-MS file, selecting "Properties", and looking at the version information.
Summary: Not having the right Microsoft Windows 8 version on your computer can cause problems opening ACCOUNTPICTURE-MS files.
