They have their own cyber cigar box now. Click Here and you’ll be redirected to the Vintage Watch Site. This site is going back to photography and related material while I gradually transfer the watch articles over to the new site…

Help, I lost my Canon Software!

Not me personally, mine is locked safely in the gear cabinet along with the boxes and warranty. I hear this from time to time on various Forums so I’m passing on the follow up post that solves this problem. Canon requires you have an original installation present before you upgrade to the latest version but if you’re doing a fresh install you may not want to put outdated software on your system first.

First download the updated software from Canon such as: EOS Utility

Then copy and paste the following into a new text file and save as whateveryoulike.reg

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Canon\EOS Utility]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Canon\DPP]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Canon\ZoomBrowser EX]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Canon\PhotoStitch]

If your using Windows 7 64 bit then use this:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Canon\DPP]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Canon\EOS Utility]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Canon\ZoomBrowser EX]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Canon\PhotoStitch]

After saving double click or right click and choose merge to add it to your registry. After this you can install the updates without having to find your original CD.
