No, it is worse. Fist of all I you can't deinstall the codec - wich mean you
can call the deinstallation routine bot the codec is still there after rebot-
and secound you are not able to edit your files because the files are changed
(corrupted?). You can reinstall your computer or give them to a friend -
nothing works, all files gone
You can view them in Windows but Lightroom, Photoshop, Picasa or Paintshop
can't read them anymore - maybe there is a raw converter from Microsoft about
to be released...
