    Photos app next / previous arrows not showing up.


    I'm not getting any previous / next arrows in the Photos app when opening a photo within a folder full of photos. The folders have only images in them. The folder optimization is set to "Pictures". Still no arrows in the Photos preview.

    These folders are linked to my Google Drive. When I copy the files into a local unlinked folder and double click them I'll get the arrows in the Photos app. Not sure if this is a clue...

    I've also tried to uncheck the "Read-Only" box in folder properties but it always rechecks itself after the dialog box is closed. Also maybe a clue...?

    I have other image-only folders linked to a different cloud storage software (Synology). These folders also have Read-Only checked. Arrows show up for files within these folders. This makes me think maybe it's a Google Drive issue?

    Anyone have a solution to this yet? Seems like an issue many have but haven't found a resolution.

    :)

    No Next / Previous Arrows In Windows 10 Photo

    Windows Photo isn't showing any next / previous arrows next to the photo I open.

    I'm double clicking the photo to launch it in Windows Photo. My folders are full of ONLY photos. I've tried this in different folders and I still don't get any arrows.

    I've run an Apps troubleshoot and nothing was detected. Is there a fix for this? It's really annoying to have to open photos individually.

    Why do you prefer the Windows Photo Viewer over the Win 10 Photos app?

    1,) Because the windows 10 photos app delete and previous/next arrows in that black box block part of the viewing area!

    2.) Scroll wheel is set to previous/next, and it was better in the previous windows photo viewer when it was set to zoom.
