About a year ago some photos accidentally ended up as a FOLDER.  Now I  WOULD like to edit them using my photo EDITOR and can not retrieve them because they are in a folder.  My editor will not PULL them up because of this.  How can I get all of them out of the folders so that I can do something with them?What do you mean by a 'folder'? Do you mean a normal folder or a compressed archive/.zip file?It dont matter if there in a regular folder, you should be able to point to them an open any of them.That's right. However, you might not be able to edit them if they are in a .zip or .rar archive.Hi.
The folder they are in are regular folders.  Not zip, or any compressed folder. I have tried to open them and send them where I can open them, however; I don't seem to be able to do that.  I'm not that smart.  I tried sending them ( folders) to the zip DISK hoping that I might be able to open it up in GIMP.   


Right clik the folder in Windows Explorer and select Properties....report back with the findings
