Windows 10: Photos app antialiasing pictures in fullscreen mode?

So not only this app takes seconds to open a small jpg (on a SSD, mind you), it also has this extremely agressive antialiasing issue?

Sample 1 - Photos app in fullscreen mode, IrfanView windowed right next to it. Notice how bad the text looks.

Sample 2 - Photos and IrfanView, both windowed, side by side.

This "app" looks like it was coded by a deep learning AI fed with self-hatred

Why do my photos show up in the microsoft app but not in my pictures folder?

Hi Cindy,



I realize the inconvenience you are experiencing with Windows 10. I will certainly help you.



This issue might occur if there is change in photo app settings.



To assist you better, please provided us the information below:

• When you say that "microsoft app", are you referring to photos app?
• Have you made any changes to the computer prior to the issue?

I suggest you to follow the steps below to check the source file for photos app and also copy the picture from external device.



Step 1: I recommend you check the source file settings in the photos app settings and check if it helps.

1. Click on Search bar.

2. Then type "Photos" without the quotes in the search bar and click on it.

3. Click on Settings on the bottom left corner of the Photos app.

4. Then check if under Sources, pictures directory is present or not.



Step 2: I suggest you to directly copy and paste the picture from the external device into the computer.

Please get back to us with an update on issue displaying pictures imported in the photos app into picture folder, we will be happy to help.



Thank you.

photos app not showing pictures on sd card

You can also try the following steps below if you have pictures on a camera with an SD card, or saved to a USB drive or external hard drive, the simplest way to get them onto your PC might be to import them.

• 
  Use a USB cable to connect the device where your new pictures are located to the PC.
  
• 
  Select the Start button, then select Photos.
  
• 
  Select Import and follow the instructions. The app automatically selects items you haven't imported before, or you can choose what to import.
  

If the issue still persists, we suggest that you try to start the computer in safe mode and check if you will also encounter the same issue.

We'll be waiting for your update.
