Description:
If I try to access a screen dump (I mean a snapshot) I get a message telling that the application which created it is missing!

I presume I must have accidently ditched something in a recent clearout of System.
Can you help
Many thanks

Hi Mike

Thanks for using No Wonder! You may have deleted simpletext, and the computer
cannot locate it to open the file. Don't despair! You can always find ANY
graphics program on your system and DRAG the file onto the application.
Alternatively, you can open the file from the program. A good program to open
many graphic files is GraphicConverter. You can get it from:
(http://user.sgic.fi/~rae/gc/files/gc_351_us_upd.sit)

Let's rebuild your desktop to see if it can help your Mac locate an appropiate
program to open up your snapshots. Follow these procedures:

1. Reboot your Mac
2. When you see the Welcome to Macintosh Screen:
- Hold down the COMMAND (Open Apple Key) and OPTION keys.
3. Continue holding down those keys until your system fully loads.
4. Once you see an alert asking are you sure you wish to rebuild your desktop:
- Choose OK. (Yes)

There you go! You should be all set. Rebuilding your desktop is recommended
by Apple to do every 2 months or so, it helps your system out. I wish you the
best of luck, and hope these suggestions get you going! Take it easy Mike, and
please let me know if I can be of any more help.

Cheers... Scott
Peace and Blessings Always!
