Windows 10: Can someone help me with deleted pictures from the photos app?

I checked my recycle bin and they aren’t in there. Unlike Apple there’s also no recently deleted photos folder. My computer was also not syncing to one drive when I deleted the pictures. Any way to get them back?

Unable to delete pictures from Photos app

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



We will need some more information from you to help you with the appropriate troubleshooting steps. Please reply with the following details:

• When you say, “I can't delete individual pictures” are you facing any issues in deleting the all pictures or only a particular? If yes, what is the error message that you read?
  
• Are you trying to remove the picture only from Photos app?
  

If you are trying to remove the pictures only from the Microsoft Photos app, then you can remove the particular folder from the Photos apps and the pictures won’t appear in Photos app. Please follow the steps mentioned below to do the same:

1. Open Photos app.
   
2. Click on ellipsis (three dots) on the top right corner and click on
   Settings.
   
3. Under Sources, click on X
   to remove the folder where your pictures are saved.
   

Please reply with the status of the issue, we will be glad to help you further.

Unable to delete pictures from Photos app

I was able to delete all the pictures that had been downloaded from the backup disc by following your instructions. There were three 'x's in sources. I first clicked off the one drive. (No change) next clicked off the dvd drive. all photos were gone. Note:
none of these photos had been installed in the windows "pictures' folder, only on photos app. It is my intention to purchase a photo editing program which I have used on my previous desktop. I am concerned the 'photos' app is going to be a problem.

 

Can not open jpeg photos with windows 10 (after deleted the pre-installed "Photos" app)

Hi,

Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

I would like to inform you that if you delete photos app, the pictures that you like to access will open in Windows Photo viewer or the applications which supports the respective format. To open certain images with the apps that you prefer, you will have
to customize it.

I suggest you to try the steps provided below.

• • Right click on the pic that you would like to view.
  • Click on Open With.
  • Click on Choose another app.
  • Choose the app accordingly.
  • Place a check mark on Always use this app to open.jpeg.

I would also like to inform you that even .jpeg pictures can be open with paint application. To check whether the picture is .jpeg format. I suggest you to right click on the picture and click on properties.

Hope the information helps. Let us know if you need further assistance. We will be happy to help.

Thank you.
