Windows 10: Microsoft Photo Viewer stopped working

So I tried resetting it and I rebooted and it disappeared. So I have tried reinstalling it several times. It says it's trying to reinstall but it the app store still provides the option to install and it doesn't show that it's downloading or installing. I've had it with Windows 10. It has already wiped out my wifi, I now have to use ethernet, and not it wiped out my photo editor.

Replacement for photo viewer

Win ver 19041.388

Just do not like this "new" photo viewer, it is just cumbersome to operate, lot of extra steps etc. I like the older Win photo viewer, however since JPG files are saved as "unhandled Extension handler finder", *Confused I need something else. Appreciate any suggestions that is not overly optioned, just a simple viewer. Tx

I just use the Photos app for a quick view, otherwise I use Adobe Lightroom to view and edit photos.

 

Need help with getting "Choose a default" to work in Photo Viewer

Hello again. You are correct about that, meaning, I did state I had tried "open with".

Turns out, by simply using "open with" the problem was not solved. By taking the extra step after selecting "open with" and not selecting Photoshop there as one would expect to work, but instead selecting "choose another app" and then selecting Photoshop listed there, the setting held. It's certainly a convoluted way of selecting one's desired photo viewer.

Thanks again.
