Windows Photo Gallery 2012 , build 16.4.3508.205 does not show anything under pictures. (or videos but at the moment I'm more concerned with looking at the pictures).

I have removed all folders from photo gallery and added the folders back in again and no pictures are shown.

I have repaired, uninstalled and reinstalled the software - problem persists.

I have downloaded the fixit from http://support.microsoft.com/kb/944221/en-us and that didn't do anything.

I have verified that the files and folders are not hidden and that users has change access to the files/folder.

If I drag and drop the folder into photo gallery it will shows the photos and folders whilst the program is open, but when I restart....nothing.

Screenshot attached that shows the c:\andy\pics folder already added and the blank pictures screen..

When I add c:\andy\pics via drag and drop I get the following screen (until I restart photo gallery and then it's blank again)
