    HEIC support is completely broken


    I've installed Microsoft's offical HEIF and HEVC libraries, and have massive problems.

    • When programs load images, the library sometimes leaves file handles open, forcing you to reboot to regain control over the file.
    • Adobe Bridge can only access a low resolution version of photos. It seems like the decoder is actually giving it the preview image, since it looks exactly like the loading placeholder that Photos uses.
    • It'll randomly stop responding and suddenly the program you're using can't operate on HEIC files anymore.
    • Explorer sometimes freezes when accessing folders with a lot of HEIC files.

    This file format has been in widespread use since 2017. This isn't acceptable. Is anyone else experiencing similar issues?

    HEIC

    Hi Edward,

    We need more information about your concern. Are you trying to convert and open other image format to HEIC? If yes, a certain program will be needed to open that kind of file, we suggest checking the Windows Store for programs that can convert other image
    format to HEIC. Make sure to download the program with the highest rating and good reviews.

    Regards.

    Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

    Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond HEIC support is completely broken :) Best regards.


    And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.
