Windows 10: Not all the photos in my folders considered in the people face detection.

I am using Windows 10 version 20H2 19042.804 and Microsoft Photos 2020.20120.4004.0. Face detection is On, but only a few photos from the same directory are considered for face recognition. Any idea why this is happening?


Thanks!

Photos app face recognition and naming people detected

hello Jelu,

thank you for the response,

1- why is it that some of the people who commented below claimed that they can associate the photo with a name and you say the feature is not available?

2- why are not all the photos in my folders considered in the people face detection? I have many older pictures that I have saved to my one drive folder but are the faces appearing in them are not being included in the people tab?

machine specs:

edition windows 10 pro

version 1709

OS build16299.248

photos app:

Photos app face recognition and naming people detected

Dear Sir/Madame,

since the photos app on windows 10 has a people tag sorting people based on the faces detected, it must have an option where the user can associate every face with a name so that it becomes easier to search and to share the photos of the
people only if they are in them.

how is it possible to add names to the detected faces?

is it possible to share the photos based on their sort in the people tab?

 

Turn On or Off Face Detection and Recognition in Windows 10 Photos app


This feature seems to be bugged on the latest version. Photos with faces are recognized and listed in the "tag list" under search box, but "People" tab is empty. Tested on another device with exactly the same result...

edit: Well, I figured it out. Gallery must contain at least 3 photos of a person to show up on "People" tab. *Wink
