Windows 10: Photos App search in SharePoint

Hello all,


Maybe someone can help me regarding if it is possible to customize Photos App.


We had stored thousands of images on a SharePoint folder, and tagged keywords for each image to create a "image-search-engine" of our own using SharePoint. However sometimes, the image doesn't load after being clicked at the results page.


I am exploring the possibility if we can utilize Photos App to solve the problem, but currently I cannot find the option to link the SharePoint folder.


If someone can share in solving this, or we are open on using other Microsoft app and not just Photos. Thank you very much in advance.

:)

 

Lost default photo viewer after profile rebuild

Thanks Brink. I've tried those steps before i started searching Google. After the profile rebuild i don't have the Photo app listed to choose to make it default in either the system settings for default apps or the Open With option.

I can't even find it doing a search. Seems to have been removed somehow with the profile rebuild, which doesn't make sense.

Might be helpful to list what i've done I've done the open with check, the choose default program in the system menu, tried that in device manager default programs also. I've checked the programs and features Turn windows features on/off and it's not listed there (never thought it was but that was a suggestion), searched the MS Store, it's not listed there either.

I don't like playing in the registry unless i have defined steps and haven't found anything for this yet, just the Win7 version like in my OP.
