LR2 Mogrify in a Windows 7 environment?

[MattBristow]

Just updated to Windows 7 had no choice as my machine went south! On reinstall LR2 Mogrify doesn't want to work in Win7 :shake:

Anyone know of a fix? if not just a word of warning for anyone else not to do it as it will add hours to my PP if I can't get it to work.

The dude that makes Mogrify is normally really good at answering questions (and posting FAQs) on his site.

Yeah I had a quick chat with Tim he unfortunately isn't on Windows 7 so couldn't help

However after much uninstalling and installing I have discovered the problem Mogrify and ImageMagick have to be of the same release, and you have to do a complete uninstall first, including some manual removals.

All works as it should now

Helpful - thanks. I am about to do a Win7 upgrade.

Make sure you use the following:

ImageMagick-6.5.7-3-Q16-windows-dll
LR2 Mogrify Version 4.14

Other variants probably work but this is what I have running on my win 7 install
