Is that any help? It refers to .net framework 3.0 as having to be installed and then in Windows Features the XPS viewer needs to be turned on (that may be all you need to do). There's also a link to a standalone download of the viewer.

Hi!! :D

I have the XPS viewer and in Windows Features, the XPS viewer in the framework3.0 is ticked, but microsoft still doesn't appear in the manufacturers list. :(

I even tried using the Windows Update button provided, but microsoft still doesn't appear in the manufacturers. :shock:

Are there other ways to make microsoft appear in the manufacturers list? :confused:

That'll be great! :cool:

Thanks for helping guys! :D
