Windows Photo Gallery 2012; can I change the slideshow interface?

Could you please do the same for tmp files too?

Turns out there are minor differences like language pack en-gb vs default and some patches for your PC version (KB2120976, KB2300535).

Well, lets investigate my last hypothesis: registry settings.
I have made two files: one for your laptop and one for desktop.
I want you to run them accordingly - laptop.bat on laptop and pc.bat on pc.

Each of them will create a folder C:\SF2013
PM me those files, if you do not want to expose them in public.

If you ever encounter an error running these scripts, please start them as administrator.
But for me it works as a standard user.

Hello rfws,

You should now be able to send PMs and VMs. :)

Thank you, Brink!

Among sensitive info these files will have full paths to your pictures and videos folders like C:\Users\YOUR_USER\Pictures
Other than that it has only Photo Gallery settings. You can look for yourself - open those reg files in notepad.
(Folders will be shown in hex format (several lines of numbers)).

I have checked out your files. It turns out sub-keys for slideshow settings and viewer settings are different.

Here is the script. Run it on donor computer. It will dump those settings into two files: slide_show.reg and viewer.reg

You need to copy them to target computer and run them there.
UAC window will popup, click yes, then another window - click yes, then - OK. Running them like this will import settings into registry.

Before importing I would close all Windows Essentials programs and after importing I would restart computer just in case.
