Topic: Help please - How to get out of "Batch mode"? Or is there a bug?

I have installed Photo! Editor on a computer running Windows XP Pro.

I installed the programme using my 'Administrator' account.  When I run Photo! Editor in that account, it works OK.

But for normal daily work on my computer I log on to my 'User' account.  And when I open Photo! Editor in my User account, in the main interface it says "Batch Mode is active", and certain buttons (like Rotate) are greyed out. 

The problem is, when I select a photo to edit, and I click on any of the other menu buttons (like Straighten, or Redeye), they do not work, and the Straighten or Redeye 'window' does not open.  So this means I cannot use Photo! Editor at all!

Two questions:  (1) how do you switch into, or out of Batch Mode?

and (2) why do the buttons for Straighten, Red Eye etc not work when I open Photo! Editor in my User account?

Bounce!

I'm hoping that - after several weeks, and after 60 people have viewed this - someone might offer a comment.

Or, maybe, that the forum admin or program designer might respond?

Otherwise, why bother with a forum?

Thanks, Admin, for replying.  At least now I know what the situation is.  It's not a great problem - I can log in as Administrator on my computer when I need to use the program.

And by the way, it is a great program!  Thank you for creating it...

Hi,

I was just wondering if this bug has been fixed and I can log into to a non administrator account when I use this program?  smile

Thanks, Carrie

Hi, I am having this problem too. I use an administrator account and but sometimes it gets into this batch mode and once it gets into that stage, I cannot use any of its functions. The buttons don't work and in my case, it never recovers after that even if I had turned off the PC and re-log in. I am using Windows 7.

This happened multiple times. I had to uninstall Photo! Editor and reinstall it again everytime this happens.

I really hope this will be fixed soon if they are to release a new version of Photo! Editor and  after that, it would almost be perfect.
