Windows 10: "Windows Photo Viewer" cropping images in slideshow

I prefer to use "Windows Photo Viewer" for viewing images since like forever, and since I upgraded to windows 10 I have been facing some issues. I recently upgraded to Windows 10, but when I use the same it shows all the images cropped whenever I enter the slideshow mode. Is there a fix for this?

Windows 10 Photo Viewer slideshow

Windows 10 Photo Viewer slideshow displays the pictures full size, not full screen, hence they are cropped if bigger than the display.

Hence I cannot use Slideshow as I did in Win 8.

Looks like a glitch to me, or is there a setting for Windows 10 Viewer?

Photos slideshow

Hi Michael,

I understand the inconvenience that you are unable view the photos in slideshow as it repeats after few photos and need to know “How can I change this to show a continuous and non-repeating slideshow?”. We will help you to
resolve this issue.



Please let us know,

• 
  Where does the photos folder located?
  
• 
  Did you try to change the folder location and check?
  

I suggest you to follow the below steps:

Step 1: If the photos folder is located on the desktop, try to create another folder and copy all the content to the newly created folder and add this folder for slideshow and check.



Step 2: Try to create new folder if different location and copy all the content to the newly created folder in different location and add this folder for slideshow and check.
