Bugs and quirks[edit | edit source]
- Unlike later builds, it allows to set a theme and run the Maintenance wizard before the computer is being restarted.
- Picture It! Express does not properly register the installation to the installed user, and as a result has an invalid product ID and labels itself as an unauthorized copy in the About box.
