Windows 10: illegible documents sent as photos/onedrive?

I am new to this version of Windows 10. When I open a document on a listserv that is sent as a png I'm not able to read the inforatin and it seems to be opened or stored in OneDrive which I don't use.


If the photo is a real photo i don't have this problem.


What can I do to make it legible. Is there someother way to open it and with something else. I have not control over how the person sends it. I didn't have this problem on my laptop that died as it didn't have OneDrive on it.


See what I mean? Could you give me the breakdown figures and total on this if you don't mind and can read it? I can't read it at all. Thanks


Thanks

:)

Windows 10 - OneDrive

Right click on the app and one of the properties has an option to not automatically start it. Uncheck, restart the computer, and it should stop. If you want to go another step further, find the OneDrive app in the start menu, right click on it and uninstall.

If that is still insufficient, there is a batch uninstaller for OneDrive available online. I can copy the code here if you need it.
