Windows 10: Microsoft Pictures

I was happily using the Microsoft Pictures app on my Dell laptop for months, and it suddenly stopped working. After trying the fixes I found on the web to no avail, I contacted Dell. The support man was on the phone with me for 3 hours trying to fix my problem and was unsuccessful. I would like to either fix the app or find another way to import photos to my hard drive. He recommended using Microsoft Photo Viewer in the meantime, but it is for viewing only. Any suggestions?

That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.
