Question asked on Feb 21, 2016

Original Title: Use of Photo Gallery for 8.1 on Windows 10 computer.

Have raised this question before following earlier posts which led to installing Live Photo Gallery on windows 10 computer. No response  so far so I suspect I have posted my follow up incorrectly. Post repeated here -

Thanks for reply to my second post on this issue. Have tried repair solution with no change. Photo gallery opens, runs for perhaps 10 seconds then has message saying it has stopped working. The same photos plus many others   are on my Windows 7 netbook  and run without any problems so I assume the files   are OK. As advise4d I have uninstalled Photo |Gallery twice and reinstalled with the same result but I have been asked to install Microsoft SQL Server 2005. Doaing this from the Download Centre throws up  a message that this may not be compatible with Windows 10. I have  also seen  an error message 0x8007045a. Photo Gallery still does not work, which is  a major disappointment as its use was a prime factor in upgrading to this new computer .HELP Please.
