    Photos and many other apps do not open after the 19H1 update


    Greeting,

    Currently, I am running on Windows 10 with the latest 19H1 update. I went to the start menu to open up Microsoft Store and Photos, but they would not open. I did everything to sort out this issue following what I found on the Internet:

    1. Reset.
    2. Used the troubleshooter.
    3. Executing the following command in the Command prompt (run as administrator): "wsreset" and "sfc/scannow".
    4. Checked for updates.


    But the problem still persists. This is what I got after opening an image through the Photos apps:
    Photos and many other apps do not open after the 19H1 update a74c142f-d59a-4463-9db0-5f49a2513c94?upload=true.jpg

    There are many important photos and files that I cannot open now, so having any feedback is highly appreciated.
    Respectfully,
    Huy

    :)

  2. Photos are opening with Paint instead of Photos app

    Hello,

    It's likely that your default application for opening photos is Paint. To change your default program in Windows 10 from
    Paint to the Photo app, we suggest that you perform the following steps:

    • On the Start menu, select Settings.
    • Go to System, then go to Default apps.
    • Select Photos or any app that you like to be the default under
      Photo viewer.

    Update us if the steps above helped you in resolving your concern.

  4. Photos and many other apps do not open after the 19H1 update

    Open with another app 'photos'


    When you choose photos and select 'open with' it gives a selection of apps. In the list I see the apps but one that looks odd is labelled %1 and has a generic app icon. It's almost as if it's some kind of old or broken program that doesn't exist. All the other programs like paint and photos are in the list as they should be but this is a rogue one. Does anyone else see this?
