Windows 10: Microsoft Photo roates portrait images to landscape

I'm running Windows 10 and it keeps auto rotating images captured in portrait orientation to landscape orientation. I'm then looking at a sideways image. Images are in raw arw format. I have tried to "reset" , "repair" and uninstall and install Photo app but still does not work. Since it's a raw file, you can't rotate it within the App.Any suggestions? I tried looking at other forums and none had solutions.

Any way to sort landscape and portrait photos in file explorer ?

Is there any way to sort landscape and portrait photos in file explorer ?

There are sorting options like width , height and dimensions but it doesn't work as expected (shows both landscape and portrait images),

however i want either landscape or portrait pictures only .

 

Use of photos app, particularly in relation to landscape and portrait images and the rotation function.

I am struggling to successfully transfer photos to my TV (linked to Humax hard drive), and view portrait images as portrait not landscape. Previously, with Windows VISTA, rotating portrait images in Photo Gallery and then transferring to the HUMAX box presented
no problems. Now, when I rotate in Windows 10 Photos App, although orientation is fine on my Windows 10 PC, on the HUMAX box all portrait images are still viewing as landscape. I have tried an alternative photo editor (paste.net) but, when rotating and saving
in that app, the images do not appear at all on the HUMAX box. I thought about installing Photo Gallery but understand that that suite of software will not be supported beyond January 2017 so that would seem unwise.

I have seen other related posts but not found anything to resolve my issue as yet. I know that modern photographic software prompts (in the metadata) whether images should be viewed landscape or portrait rather than physically rotating the pixels/image and
wonder whether this is what the Photos app is doing (ie amending the metadata rather than properly rotating the image).

 

Microsoft Photo App auto rotating raw image files from portrait to landscape

Since the latest update of the Photo App (2019.19021.18010.0) raw image files which are originally in portrait format are automatically rotated to landscape view and the manual rotation is disabled. This only applies to raw images and not to formats such
as .jpg or .png.

The issue is only present in the view mode of the app while the image appears correctly in the editing mode.

Is there a way of disabling set auto rotation or a work around of stopping the app from doing that?
