Windows 10: Photo App people tagging

I have installed a new hard drive with a clean install of Windows 10 Home, Version 1809.


I was hoping the photo app would re-scan my photos and tag them, but it seems to have halted with less than twenty photos tagged.


The app does show all photos in my Pictures folder. (And that is the only folder it is monitoring, and the only folder with pictures.)


Is there some way to re-initiate the scan process? Force it to scan?

:)

There is no direct way to do it in Photos, but you could open the photo in its original location on the hard disk, right click, choose Properties > Details tab then add tags there.

What you see face tagging Photos is auto generated. You should submit suggestions to make it possible to so manually. Press Windows key + F to open the Feedback app.

 

Tagging People in Windows 10 Photos app

Is it possible to tag people in photos using Microsoft Photos on Windows 10 platform? (I know you can tag generic info to the photo, but can you tag specific people?)

AND, if not, is there an app that will do this?

I loved the old MS Photo Gallery and am sad that Photos does not appear to work the same way.
