Windows 10: people tagging stalls

The Photo app has stalled in recognizing people in my photos. Just re-installed Windows. So the Photo app is re-initializing, and as it did before, has tagged about 10 people in my photos. The number of photos tagged is about 50 of the several hundred on file.


I have seen this problem flagged in other posts, but have not seen any solution.

People tagging in Photo Preview app

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



Please note that tagging in Photos app is based on Artificial intelligence (AI) which means once you tag a person it should search for similar faces and tag them in all the Pictures and also create a contact in people’s app. Just make sure that
you are signed in with your Microsoft account using which you tagged the people earlier. AI should take some time, however the tags should appear if it was signed to your Microsoft account.



So to have a better understanding of the issue, please write back with the following information:

1. 1. Are you signed in using the same Microsoft account on both the devices?
      
   2. Which version of Windows is installed on your device?
      
   3. Which version of photos app is installed on your device?
      

Regards,

 

Clear the 'cache' in file explorer for already used picture tags?


If you set some tags for your *.jpg pictures, the windows 10 file explorer shows them in the "details pane" on the right side.





This list can get very long and with some wrong or no longer used entries.
How can I clear this list / cache / suggestions?

Or how can I stop the file explorer to suggests already used Tags?

 

Photo App people tagging

Thanks for the suggestion.

My pictures are all on OneDrive which I have also set to always keep on my PC.

I did as you suggested. Deleted the folder, and then re-added it.

The pictures show, but now there are no people tagged. Perhaps it just needs some time. I'll wait for a bit.
