Windows 10: Photo App's arrow keys and slideshow don't work

Hi,


Suddenly the Photo app can't no longer scroll through a folder of pictures.

No arrow keys are visible. Nor can I use the keyboard arrow keys. Nothing happens.


And if I start the slideshow only one single picture is viewing, repeating itself...


What is wrong here?


Thanks!

:)

 

Photo viewer Slideshow not working - both versions


Hi, I am trying to find a slideshow that works on Windows 10, with no luck.

First I tried the new Windows 10 photo viewer. Clicking slideshow on this app works, but only for a single photo. Clicking on any logical key, like the arrow keys or space bar or mouse just ends the slideshow. I would expect you could enter the slideshow and then key through all your photos.

Giving up on that, I launched the old Windows Photo Viewer. Launching slideshow in this trusty old program made all my photos appear the wrong size. They were too big and the bottom of the photo went off the screen so that I was only seeing about 80% of the photo.

Please help me fix one or both of these issues please!

 

down arrow key stopped working

My razor lycosa down arrow key decided to not respond at some point today. The other ones work and so does the numpad arrow if i turn off the numlock. Sounds like its just broken and im screwed, but any suggestions?

 

photo app - How can I do a slideshow in an album? I only see the slideshow option outside of albums.

Hi,

Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community.

• 
  Are you referring to the slide show option in the photo app?
  

I suggest you to follow the below steps for the slideshow option and check if it helps.

• 
  Open the “Photo App”
  
• 
  Go to any three options “Collection”, “Albums” and “Folders”.
  
• 
  Click on any “Photo” and press the key “F5” it will launch slide show.
