Windows 10: As of yesterday, photos in the app are greyed out

When opening photos in the link app from Win 10, I just get solid grey thumbnails. If I open the photo in PhoneLink it also shows a grey box and no photo. If I select the "open" link to open it into the Windows photo preview app, then I can see the photo. Sometimes thumbnails show up for a minute and then become greyed out.

Photos App greyed out (darkened) in Apps list.

Hello All. I was scrolling through the Apps list when I noticed that the Photos App is greyed out (or darkened). Why is this? What should I do?

 

Grey background in Photos app

Normally, the background on the home page in Photos app shows pictures in the phone randomly.



When I first bought Lumia 720 and I took pictures, there isn't any grey background in the Photos app.

I have used it for almost 4 months and found that it started to show grey background in the Photos app.

Then yesterday, I copied my old photos to my PC to back up and I deleted the copied photos.

After that, it shows grey background more than 50% that I have opened Photos app.

What should I do?

 

Thick grey bars in Microsoft Photos app

Hey there. I have been browsing around a bit online and didn't see any real solutions to this
When I am in the app viewing an image, is seems to be squished in more than normal, when usually the image would go to the sides of the window itself.




and when I attempt to zoom in on the image, there seems to be thick grey bars alongside the left, right and bottom of the image itself. When I click on the image to get rid of the zoom indicator, it returns to its original position as in the image above.



I have followed this Microsoft answers forum post to no luck.
Grey Borders in Photos App - Microsoft Community
I have reset the app, deleted it and re-downloaded it, and restarted my computer on top of doing everything in the top post.

It was working fine without the grey bars yesterday, and I'm not sure what happened between then and now. I'm fairly sure this couldn't be an actual update to the app that has done this, so i'm wondering what is doing it. Any answers would be incredibly helpful!
