I have been using Windows (Live) Photo Gallery for years.  I know it is no longer formerly supported.  However, despite the removal of support for Geotagging, it does the job and allows for easy tagging of photos.  I would hate to think that all those hundreds of hours spent tagging photos would be lost.

My problem is that something in Windows keeps changing the WLPG Picture library definition.  Folders are either removed from the Pictures library or switched back to no-longer existing locations on the C: drive (my data files were moved to another drive).  

Has anyone else suffered from this problem and, more importantly, do they have a solution?
