No, the application is not compatible with Windows 10. I have checked official forums from Microsoft where other users had this problem, and there is no solution to install it. The application has problems installing on Windows 7 in 32bit mode as well which means it's impossible to run it on Windows 10.

However, if you have the setup package on your computer, right click it and choose Properties > Compatibility. From the drop down menu, select Windows XP Service Pack 3. Accept the changes and tick the Run as Administrator option then launch the installation.

Liked it on XP too. Just tried it on Windows 10.
1. Dragged the whole IPHOTO folder from the installation disk into the Program files (x86) directory.
2. Created a shortcut and dragged it to the desktop.
3. Clicked the shortcut on the desktop and it runs.
4. Opened a photo and adjusted and saved it.

Note, have not tried any other functions yet.

I've used the following installation method on every version of windows since 1999 and it has never failed to work.

  1. Copy the folder IPPLUS4 directly from your cd/dvd into your Program Files (x86) folder
  2. When done click and open the IPPLUS4 folder and find and open the IPP4.ENG folder
  3. In this folder click and open the PROGRAMS folder
  4. In the PROGRAMS folder find IPE.EXE and create a short-cut by right clicking it. Then drag or copy it to your Desktop
  5. Back out of all open folders and then click on the Desktop short-cut and if you have followed this correctly you will now see iPlus 4 open up.

OMG!!!  I am so very happy!  I love this program Ulead Photo Plus 4 and I haven't been able to use it in years.  It does things that no other software can do (as far as I know anyway!!)  I just performed a clean install of Win10 and as I was reinstalling my fav software, I thought what the heck, let's try again.  Didn't work of course, so I did a quick search, fortunately found this page and VOILA!!  Happy, Happy, Happy!!

Works perfectly, many thanks! I've used this program for years after getting it free on a scanner installation disc. I lost it when going over to 10 and could never get it working since, until today, thanks again!

It worked on all my various computers, including my Win 10 machine. But last week, when a specialist had to replace the system after a virus-removal episode, with a newer version it won't anymore. All attempts, including the above mentioned "tricks", were in vain. So sorry - I used this fine little program extensively since its invention.

USING ULEAD IPHOTO4 on Windows 7 64

After using IPHOTO for years (it came with an old scanner
I was annoyed when I wouldn't re-install it on a fresh
Win7 installation. Luckily I have the Programme archived
from the original scanners disc (I don't know if it is
still available anywhere else) and fiddling around managed to
re-install it and get it working again -- here's how

FIRST
Copy the programme folder with all its contents onto your computer

NEXT
1. Open folder "IPHOTO"
2. Open folder "6L"
3. Open older "IPP4.ENG - (or your language version)
4. Open folder "PROGRAMS"
5. RIGHT click "IPE.EXE"
6. Select from menu "Send to"
7. LEFT click from menu "Desktop (create shortcut)"

Put the shortcut wherever convenient

That should be it ! just open the programme and set it up
as you like it. (Don't forget to associate files to it !!)

I'm running Win7 Professional 64bit - SP1

Best Terry

I am using iphoto Plus 4 On Windows 10 in May 2018. It works perfectly. However the original version which came free CD on front of a magazine in the days of Windows 95, finally refused to work on Windows 7.

I found a new version on the Internet and downloaded that. It is the exact same programme but now works on Win 10 Home Version but I have not tried it on the latest 1803 version of 10 , which MS technicians told me requires a new PC !

i Photo Plus 4 is the best photo programme I have found to this day. An absolute gem written by a genius. It has a good range of facilities without being cluttered with "professional" or gimicky whistles and bells.

IPhoto Plus 4 will work on Windows 10.
Here is how I got it to work. I used the same method as Collers (see his answer), but it would not work from the Programs (x86) folder, because from there it could not acces the image folder. So I moved the Iphoto program folder to the' images' folder (where the photos are I want to edit) and from there it works fine.

  1. Copy the folder IPPLUS4 directly from your cd/dvd into your Images folder
  2. When done click and open the IPPLUS4 folder and find and open the IPP4.ENG folder
    In this folder click and open the PROGRAMS folder
  3. In the PROGRAMS folder find IPE.EXE (IPhoto Plus 4 icon) and create a short-cut by draging it to your taskbar
  4. Back out of all open folders and then click on the Desktop short-cut and if you have followed this correctly you will now see iPlus 4 open up and you can acces and edit your images

Disclaimer: I have very limited computer knowledge and even less of Windows 10 but so far everything works as normal.

Hi it is now August 2020 and I wondering if ANYONE has successfully used Ulead IPhoto4 on Win 10?

I loved using this software many MANY years ago and as I am now long in the tooth myself would prefer to stick with something I know rather than try to use something, all singing and all dancing, that I will never be able to master at my age.

Id appreciate ANY help on this please

Thank you so much

Pam
