    can't change destination on windows10 for uploaded photos


    Until recently I was able to change the destination folder of any photos I uploaded from my phone. In the past month or so, it will not let me change the destination, and just crashes when I try. So my photos are all going to the last folder I used before the problem started and I have to go in and move them which is very time consuming. I have looked for an answer and can't see one anywhere, nice easy answer please, I am not a computer expert!

    :)

  3. Unable to change the import destination in photos

    Hi Karl,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    In order to get clarity on this issue and assist you with appropriate troubleshooting steps, please reply with the answers to the questions below.



    1. Are you aware of any changes made to this computer prior to the issue?
    2. How are you trying to import the camera photos onto your computer?


    If the Photos Application is just disappearing, then I suggest you to follow the steps mentioned in
    Fix problems with apps from Microsoft Store and then try to import the photos
    from your camera onto your computer.



    You might not be able to directly import the photos from your camera to a specific folder in the Photos application, so I suggest you to import the photos from your camera and it will appear in the Collection tab in the Photos application. Then, you
    will be able to create an Album for all those pictures.



    Else, once you connect your camera to the computer, you can go to
    This PC
    > Double-click on your camera > Copy the photos that you want by selecting the photos and pressing the
    Ctrl and C keys > Then, paste those photos in a specific folder that you have created.



    If you want this folder to be visible in the Photos application, then you just need to go to
    Folders tab beside to Albums tab > Click on
    Add a folder
    > Then, select the folder where the photos are located.



    For reference, you may also refer Import photos and videos from phone to
    PC
    and the section Import photos and videos from
    See all your photos and check if this helps.



    You may also follow the suggestions
    provided by Andre Da Costa dated December 21, 2015.



    Give it a shot and let us know of any changes.



    Hope it helps.

    Organising and uploading photos to other websites.

    How to upload to Photobox:

    2. Sign In to your account.
    3. Click on upload from the navbar at the top of the site.
    4. Select Computer when asked to choose the location of your photos.
    5. Click on Get photos from your computer.
    6. Navigate to where your photos are located in the File Upload window.
    7. Reap the rewards!

    The process is pretty much the same for Dropbox and Google Photos.
