Notes

Be sure to read the following notes:

  1. Windows Photo Gallery, Windows Live Photo Gallery, and Windows Photo Viewer

    When NRW (RAW) files are selected, these applications display the previews embedded in the images.

  2. “Camera Model” and “Camera Manufacturer”

    Do not change the “Camera model” and “Camera Manufacturer” fields in the “Details” tab of the NRW file properties. Operation of Nikon applications and the NRW Codec is not guaranteed if these fields are changed.

  3. Rotating NRW Images

    NRW images cannot be rotated in the Explorer, Windows Photo Gallery, Windows Photo Viewer, or Windows Live Photo Gallery.

  4. NRW Thumbnails

    Thumbnails for NRW files may not display correctly in the Explorer, Windows Photo Gallery or Windows Photo Viewer. If this occurs, use Disk Cleanup as described below.

    • 1) Right-click the system disk in Computer and select Properties.
    • 2) Select Disk Cleanup in the General tab.
    • 3) Under Files to delete in Disk Cleanup, check Thumbnails and uncheck all other options.
    • 4) Select OK to start disk cleanup; when a confirmation message “Are you sure you want to permanently delete these files?” is displayed, select Delete Files.

In addition, Windows Photo Gallery, Windows Live Photo Gallery, or Windows Photo Viewer may not function normally after the file is opened.
