    Files takes a long time to open from my profile


    Good Day


    I recently, and suddenly became unable to open files quickly as it used to. Now when I click on any file (word, excel, pdf, picture), it would take a very long time to open, although it would appear in the explorer preview pane.


    I created another account (local computer), everything went smooth and fine.


    note: I updated my system to version 1903, hoping it will fix the issue but nothing change.


    Can any body help how to fix this issue.


    Thank you in advance

    Lost default photo viewer after profile rebuild


    Thanks Brink. I've tried those steps before i started searching Google. After the profile rebuild i don't have the Photo app listed to choose to make it default in either the system settings for default apps or the Open With option.

    I can't even find it doing a search. Seems to have been removed somehow with the profile rebuild, which doesn't make sense.

    Might be helpful to list what i've done Files takes a long time to open from my profile :) I've done the open with check, the choose default program in the system menu, tried that in device manager default programs also. I've checked the programs and features Turn windows features on/off and it's not listed there (never thought it was but that was a suggestion), searched the MS Store, it's not listed there either.

    I don't like playing in the registry unless i have defined steps and haven't found anything for this yet, just the Win7 version like in my OP.
