Meanwhile, Microsoft agrees with what we’ve all been saying since ” Day Zero” and posted the following suggestion:

Un-register Shimgvw.dll, follow these steps:

1.	Click Start, click Run, type "regsvr32 -u %windir%\system32\shimgvw.dll" (without the quotation marks), and then click OK.
2.	A dialog box appears to confirm that the un-registration process has succeeded. Click OK to close the dialog box.
