    Photos App auto rotating portrait RAW files to landscape


    Photos App auto rotating portrait RAW filesLately whenever I open a raw file CR2 in Photos it flips it from portrait to landscape and I can't flip it back. It I try to use the rotate feature, it says this can't be applied to RAW files. I've reset the app, uninstalled it etc and nothing works.Has anyone seen this?The Frustrating part is it initially recognises the photo as Portrait but then applies a preset and rotates the file. Landscape images do not rotateCurrent OS Windows 11 Version 21H2 OS Build 22000.434Photos Version 2021.21120.8011.0Previously this was a problem here:Windows 10

    Microsoft Photo App auto rotating raw image files from portrait to landscape

    Since the latest update of the Photo App (2019.19021.18010.0) raw image files which are originally in portrait format are automatically rotated to landscape view and the manual rotation is disabled. This only applies to raw images and not to formats such
    as .jpg or .png.

    The issue is only present in the view mode of the app while the image appears correctly in the editing mode.

    Is there a way of disabling set auto rotation or a work around of stopping the app from doing that?

    Photos App auto rotating portrait RAW files

    Lately whenever I open a raw file (CR2) in Photos it flips it from portrait to landscape and I can't flip it back. It I try to use the rotate feature, it says this can't be applied to RAW files. I've reset the app, uninstalled it etc and nothing works.

    Has anyone seen this?

    Win 10 - disable auto rotate for photos


    Windows 10 auto rotates photos - now when I drag and drop photos to word 10, I have no idea which way they will rotate - all portrait become landscape = as I use many tens of photos per report this is really annoying.

    With win 7, I could just drag and drop straight into a word table portrait remained portrait, landscape remained landscape.

    can I disable auto rotate? is there another work around as I like win 10
