Picture manager very slow to open.
Office 2003
1. Find file OIScatalog.cag that is in your Profile path %\Documents and Settings\<YOUR_PROFILE>\LocalSettings\Application Data\Microsoft\OIS%
2. Look for "MRU PATH"
3. Delete all PATHS that no longer exist
Office 2007 & 2010
1. Find file OIScatalog.cag that is in your Profile path C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Local\Microsoft\OIS\OIScatalog.cag
2. Look for "MRU PATH"
3. Delete all PATHS that no longer exist
Office 2013
Microsoft has made several bad decisions with Office 2013. The lack of Picture Manager is one of them. Windows Live Photo Gallery has feature gaps, as does Word and PowerPoint - compared to Picture Manager.
OISCatalog.cag
Find the above file which should be found in
Win XP -- in your Profile path %\Documents and Settings\<YOUR_PROFILE>\LocalSettings\Application Data\Microsoft\OIS%
Win 7/8 :- C:\users\username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\OIS\ and just delete it.
Then reopen picture manager and this should have sorted it.
