  1. I installed Windows 11 on my new computer. Disappointed in Photos App


    I keep seeing reviews and accolades about how powerful Windows 11 Photos is. I'm seeing that it is way inferior to Windows 10. Am I not doing something correctly? Perhaps I don't have the latest version?Exposure adjustment tools are weakNo histogramNo red-eye removalNo RetouchPoor interface between Photos app and File Explorer. I delete a photo in the app but it stays even when it is gone from the Explorer file.I suppose it doesn't matter since I'm going with Adobe products anyway.

    :)

  3. my Windows 10 Photo App is not installed or visible on my App list

    In my app list the Photo app is a grey box. I click on it and nothing happens. In fact many are grey boxes.

    This is a new computer which came with Windows 10.

    any suggestions?

    WINDOWS 10 MICROSOFT PHOTO APP

    Hello,

    Welcome to Microsoft Community.

    The Photos app brings together pictures from all your devices using OneDrive, so that you can browse them by date, album or folder. It also automatically enhances photos, and creates albums for you, to showcase your best shots.

    I suggest you to follow the methods below and check if it helps:

    Method 1:

    I suggest you to change the Default apps in the setting app and verify the result. You may follow the steps in the below:

    • Go to settings and system.
    • Click on Default Apps and select the appropriately.

    Method 2:

    I suggest you to reinstall Photo app using the PowerShell command
    and reinstall using the Windows store. Follow the below steps.

    • Open the Start menu, type Windows PowerShell in the search bar.
    • Right click on the Windows PowerShell and select Run as administrator.
    • Enter the below command to uninstall the Photo app.

    •   get-appxpackage  *Microsoft.Windows.Photos* | remove-appxpackage
