Windows 10: Downloading Microsoft Photo's App to Computer

The computer is running on Windows 10 and should have this already but it's not installed. I click on 'get' but nothing happens? I have also tried to log in to the other computer but it says my log in does not exist, although I am on this now. Bit confused. Please help?

WINDOWS 10 MICROSOFT PHOTO APP

Hello,

Welcome to Microsoft Community.
