    How to use double click to get MS Photo to open *.jpg file without an error message?


    When I double click on a *.jpg file I receive a "cannot find" error message stating windows cannot access the file. This occurs when I have the windows photo app set as the default. With paint as the default, I do not receive this message.Oddly enough, when I right click and choose the "open with" option, and select photos, I do not receive this message and the file opens up as expected. I can double click other file extensions without this error.Any suggestions on what may be the issue, and any suggestions on resolution would be helpful. Thanks.

    :)

    Photo viewer not opening photos, gives error message

    It's when I double click on a jpg file.

    Just tried from inside the app - went to import and then selected an old photo, and it opened fine.

    Still not working with the regular double click.

    Do you suggest I go ahead with the fix you mention?
