Windows 10: Photo View by Month

I have just purchased a new HP ProBook Laptop with Windows 10 operating system.

I have just finished organising all my photos into monthly folders. However there is no order to the folders & therefore they are very hard to find.

On my old Laptop, which had Windows 7 operating system the photo folders were able to be stored in Month view. Then each time I downloaded new photos it would set up a new folder for the month the photos were taken & within that folder it would show the photos by day.

This option is not available in Windows 10.

Is there any way this Month option can be added.


Thanks in advance,

View Photos by Month

Sorted, You can now only do it through Windows photos app. When you first click on it all your photos come up in date order, if you then click on the date for the latest photos the screen will then list all of the months that you have photos. Thanks for
suggestions and hope this helps anyone with the same problem.

Windows 10 Viewing photos by month & year

I have just upgraded from Windows 7 to 10 and wondered if anyone can help me with a query please ?

In Windows 7 I had all my photos of the grandchildren in one folder called 'Freddie & Anna' that was set up as follows:

• There were no sub folders for months/years within the 'Freddie & Anna' folder.
  
• When I clicked on the folder 'Freddie & Anna' the system displayed month & year 'icons' so that I could select the photos I wanted to view by clicking on the appropriate month & year 'icon'.
  
• If my memory is correct I did this by using 'Arrange by' within the 'Freddie & Anna' folder.
  

I have set up the following folder structure in Windows 10:

and all the photos of my grandchildren are in the folder 'Freddie & Anna'.

There are no sub folders for months/years within the 'Freddie & Anna' folder.

When I click on the folder 'Freddie & Anna' I want my system to do what it did in Windows 7 and display the month & year icons but it does what I don't want and displays all the photos and groups them under the headings 'Earlier This Week', 'Last Week', 'Earlier This Month', Earlier This Year', and 'A Long Time Ago'. The system does this very slowly.

In Windows 7 the system was pretty quick to display the month & year 'icons' and then to display the appropriate photos if I clicked on one of the month & year 'icons'.

I would like to set up my folders/photos in Windows 10 so they are displayed as my system did in Windows 7.

Can anyone help me to do this please?

 

View Photos by Month

Before the latest update I could click on Libraries and get my photos up in month order, this seems to have been taken out by the update. So, can I still view my photos by month?
