• Try Photos App, if unresolved move on to the next step

→ Reset Photos App in Settings

• Go to Settings > Apps > Apps & features

• Wait for the list of Apps to load, select the Microsoft Photos App

• Click "Advanced options"

• Click the Reset button

• Reboot your PC

• Try Photos App, if unresolved move on to the next step

→ Re-install the Microsoft Photos App using PowerShell Script

• Using Cortana, Type "powershell"

• Right click the "Windows PowerShell App" from the suggestion and select "Run as Administrator"

• Wait for the prompt "C:\WINDOWS\System32>" to show up, copy/paste this script and hit enter:

Code:

Get-AppxPackage *photos* | Remove-AppxPackage[\code]

• Reboot your computer and open Microsoft Store App
