Windows 10: New Photo App

Hello,The new photo app has some interesting features, however, it is full of a bugs, and unfortunately there is no way to easily import photos from my iPhone to my OneDrive. Let me explainOption 1: Connect your iPhone to your PC to import picture- Connect and authorize ==> Works- Click on Apple iPhone in the left menu of Photo Apps ==> WorksResult:You see thumbnails appearing very quickly BUT...some are not rotated properly and after 20s when the iphone screens turns off, the entire process stops ! So to import you need to continously touch the screen of the iPhone. ==> Not an option

Photos are opening with Paint instead of Photos app

Hello,

It's likely that your default application for opening photos is Paint. To change your default program in Windows 10 from
Paint to the Photo app, we suggest that you perform the following steps:

• On the Start menu, select Settings.
  
• Go to System, then go to Default apps.
  
• Select Photos or any app that you like to be the default under
  Photo viewer.

Update us if the steps above helped you in resolving your concern.
