  1. moving files to different folders in photos


    When organizing photo files, windows denies ability to move or rename, says file is not available, does not exist. the file is still there, but does not display. I have to reboot. The computer stalls on reboot and close. I have to hold the start button down & computer closes. After rebooting, new file name is used and files are moved.

    :)

  2. can't move photos into folders?

    Hi Mary,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    We understand how you feel about the situation. We're sorry for the trouble.

    I would require some more information to help you better.

    • Are you trying to create folder in photo app?
    • Did you logged in as administrator user?


    If you are referring to photo app as of now there is no option of Folder view in Photo app, but you can store the folders in the Albums. Album stores the photos in the form of folders. The images which are uploaded
    in the form of folders can be viewed in the albums in the photo app.

    I would suggest you to follow the below link.
