Hello

Running on Windows Seven 64 bits
I Installed Karsten. Then I added pictures. I decided to test screen saver. I saw that the pictures were displayed at 100% so I changed the zoom setting. Then I discovered that setting was picture / picture so selected all pictures and I changed zoom setting and checked that I had the effect I wanted. Then forgot about it. Next time I looked Karsten Screen Saver had started (one of my pictures was being displayed) and I had an error. "Karsten screen saver cannot start. Please check that the application is installed properly. {6eb78410-07f2-1104-a7e5-000084812410}" (but exact number may be wrong). I had to use Ctrl+Alt+Del to reach the Windows login screen. I reset the screen saver to my previous one. Then I decided to reboot and do another test. But I could not find the Karsten screen saver in the Windows screen saver combo. I tried to uncheck it from Karsten but I got an exception.

I then tried to copy KarstenScrSav.scr to System32. It appeared in the combo but did not work, so I removed it from System32. I am going to uninstall Karsten completely and reinstall it. I'll wait a few days before doing it in case there is something I can check before, for example in the registry.
