#WINDOWS 10 PHOTOS APP DIDN T START UPGRADE#

I looked at one that I remembered as being pretty good, but when I looked with a careful eye, itВ turned out to be kind of blurry. Well, recently I finally had it hit me.В I was looking at photos of a past hiking trip to pick one for printing as an 8Г—10. To get to the point finally вЂ“ I didnвЂ™t notice it at first, but I think I had an inkling in the back of my mindВ that something wasnвЂ™t right viewing my photos. Discussion of some Photos App issues are here on Reddit. Lots of people still prefer the older program. From what IвЂ™ve read, many issues have been fixed, but a several nagging ones are still around. That was despite a few minor problems and inconveniences I found. But I figured IвЂ™d stick with the new one. Back when I updated to Windows 10, I read that people were able to go back to using the older Windows Photo Viewer with a registry change. Thankfully, the replacement Photos app allows you to do most of the same things.

In my experience, it beats the way things work on Mac as well. ItвЂ™s really a great way to look at your pictures and you donвЂ™t have to bother with any photo management software. Basic functions allowed you to page forward and back through all the photos in a folder, start a slideshow, zoom in and out, and rotate. The image displayed fit to the window for best viewing. Like the older Photo Viewer, people have used these photo viewers to open up their photos (or any other images) with a simple double-click. Actually the Photos app was introduced with Windows 8 and fit right in with its heavy emphasis on touch-friendly interface.

The Windows Photo Viewer was switched out in favor of the Photos app.

The upgrade to Windows 10 brought with it a big change to a seemingly small and basic app.
