Windows 10: No arrows on my photos. I open a photo I can not go left or right.

I am getting so tired of this. Day in and day out I see windows not working more and more and more and more and more and more. How is it they can get away with this?

Newest issue, i have no arrows on my photos. I open a photo I can not go left or right.

Not one element in this entire operating system works.

reinstalling windows does nothing and IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE INSTALL.

Getting real old.

Windows 10 Photos App Left/Right Scroll arrows missing in some photo folders but not all

Thanks Paulself but this seemed to have no effect. I followed all 15 steps to the letter on my Google Drive folder. It seemed to work through all the files reassigning the permissions. Still, with any folder with a mixture of photo and non-photo files, no
left right arrows in the Photos app. Even in a folder with all jpg files, I have to select all the files before opening them to be able to nav left right arrow.

AAAAND back to Picasa.

 

Keyboard left arrow goes to next picture; right arrow to previous - Windows 10 Photo app

When I open a photo in the Photos app (Windows 10), and I use my keyboard's right arrow, this brings me to the previous picture in the folder... The same happens, by the way, when I use the left/right arrows next to the photos in the app. I cannot tell under which version it still was OK, and I'm sure it was this app, since I've been using it for at least a year (and probably a couple of years) now.

Anyone have the same experience? How to fix this?
