    Auto-Enhancing preview in the Photos app


    Whenever I view my photos individually in the photos app, after about 4 seconds the white balance and exposure is automatically adjusted. The change isn't saved, it's just a preview of what it could look like if I let the app adjust the photo for me with the auto-editing tools. It reverts back to normal if you go to the next photo and then return to the previous one, but again after 4 seconds the editing preview appears again. This feature is super annoying as a photographer when I just want to look at my photos in their original form.. Is there any way to turn the preview off? I can't find it in the photos app setting.

    Thanks

    :)

    Auto-Enhance Photos

    Yes, I have used Windows 10 since it became available.

    I updated it this morning and restarted my computer. The Auto-Enhance feature still doesn't appear in the Photos app, not even in Settings.

    I haven't made any changes to my computer.

    There used to be an Auto-Enhance icon in the Photos toolbar when I called up a photo. All photos would be automatically enhanced and I would have to click on the icon if I wanted to un-enhance them.

    Now, in order to enhance them, I have to click on Edit and enhance each photo manually.

    The previous app was much better and easier to use.

    I have read all the articles I could find about the Photos app. The Microsoft website hasn't been updated if you have removed the Settings option to turn Auto Enhance Off/On. It isn't there any more.

    Please help me fix this.
