On Search Bar type %temp% (it will open temporary files) just hit ctrl +A and then delete all

Deleting Random image files from Photos App, Windows 10

Hi Michelle,



Thank you for writing tom Microsoft Community Forums.



Photos app in Windows 10 gathers photos from your PC, phone, OneDrive and other devices, and puts them in one place, where you can more easily find what you’re looking for. Please refer

See all your photos for more details.



We would suggest you to follow the steps mentioned below and try deleting the source folder of the image file from the Photos App.

1. Open Photos App.
   
2. Click on the image you want delete to full view.
   
3. Right click on the image in full view and select
   File info.
   
4. Check and make a note of Folder Path of the image file.
   
5. Then go back by clicking on back arrow at the top left corner.
   
6. Click on Ellipsis icon at top right corner and choose
   Settings.
   
7. Click on X button on noted folder path in the list of folder paths under
   Here is the list of what we have found so far and check.
   

Regards,

 

Photos and images not opening on windows 11

I just did that and Reset. Now when I double click it opens the image I clicked on and then it asks me how I want to print it.
Like what the?

I have a third party app so I can open images that way but I would like the default app to work.
