Windows 10: Fit for purpose

The Microsoft products that are on the new computer I have purchased do not seem fit for purpose. I bought the new machine to replace an older machine running windows 7 the Windows 10 does not let me do simple actions in the Mail account such a import emails, make groups, make new files or any of the other functions that exist in the earlier releases.

Can you help me to get sorted out? My wife who runs an email notice board is not able to get started and is increasingly cross with Microsoft, as indeed I am.

Help sort this out and restore some of the respect that we used to have for your company.

A reply would seem necessary.

:)

MS PHOTOS Not Fit For Purpose

Ever since Windows 10 came out MS Photos has been not fit for purpose with so many glitches when used to download media from your phone.

I thought it could not get any worse but IT HAS, MS have clearly done a revision as the interface when you do downloads has changed, for instance there is no longer a toggle to delete media you have down loaded.

Problem is now when you try to select what photos you want to download it just crashes.

Don't bore me with all the 'fixes' I've tried them all, uninstalled and reinstalled so many times its painful and tried every single trick suggested , nothing works.

MS are you not embarrassed that a key part of the Windows 10 interface is so poor? Are you not also embarrassed that after so long you are unable to fix the problem or bring out a replacement that is fit for purpose?

Try something else I hear you say, well I have I also use Fast Stone Image Viewer, problem is MS Photos is an integral part of Windows 10 used by MS Explorer for instance to view thumbnails and every time I set Fast Stone Image Viewer as default program
MS Photos finds a way of weaseling its way back.

Having said that Fast Stone Image Viewer does not seem to fully integrate so if you want to view thumbnails in File Explorer you can't; you just see a 'placeholder' graphic.

Why oh why wont MICROSOFT sort this out, I'm actually thinking my next Laptop and Phone will be APPLE at least they have all these BASIC functions working properly.

I suppose now I will get a load of cut-and-pasted / recycled suggestions from MS instead of a proper solution and some resources spend fixing the problem.

I might be doing that with my incoming cards. Pics tomorrow of what they are.
