Crop Function Greyed out

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



Usually when you preview a picture that was captured from camera app, it should open in the photos app where you can edit/crop it. I would suggest you to try editing/cropping the photos in
Photos app.
As you mentioned that issue occurred after the update, I would suggest follow the steps provided below and check if that helps:



Method 1: Please follow the steps provided in the article: Fix problems with apps
from Microsoft Store.



Method 2: Reinstall the app using PowerShell.

1. Open PowerShell and run it as admin. To open PowerShell, right click on the start button and then on Windows PowerShell (Admin).
   
2. Then type: Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.WindowsCamera | Remove-AppxPackage.
   
   
3. Reboot your computer.
   
4. Open PowerShell again and then type: Reinstalling apps:
   Get-AppXPackage -allusers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}
   

Regards,

 

Crop tool Photos App not working

Thank you for the information.

To help us isolate this further, kindly provide us the following information.

• What changes have you made prior to this issue?
• To which program are you exactly using the crop tool? Photos App or Office 2016?
• You mentioned crop tool is not working properly when Photos App is used. Have you tried to close it, and check if the issue persists?

If you are only experiencing the issue with Office 2016, kindly run the repair Office application by referring to the steps listed on this

link.

However, if you are encountering it with Photos App only, we suggest that you run the troubleshooter for Windows apps through this

link.

Looking forward to your response.

 

Getting white edges when cropping in 3D paint

The title says it all. Steps I'm taking:

• Open/Browse/Select an image
• Click Canvas: adjust pixel sizing to as close as I can to my desired pixels - usually this adjusts either height or width to my needs but I need to crop the other.
• Click Crop: crop the image
• File Save

Sometimes, I get a nice clean crop. Other times I get a white edge on one, sometimes 2 sides and it's usually not the side I cropped. So If I crop in from the left, the right has a white edge or sometimes the bottom.

Any tips on how to avoid this?

PS - I tried to add an example file but since this background is white, the white edge isn't viewable.
