    Photos app search is slow


    Does anyone find the native photo app slow when it build it search. I opened it yesterday and top right was search and a blue bar moving up very slowly. I know it’s building some kind of index and I have a couple thousand photos but on machine of my spec it seemed very slow. It was literally taking a second for each photo and as a result took s long time to complete. I didn’t want to
    interup it so let it finish but that seemed very slow to me

    :)

    Photos app often displays sharp images as somewhat blurry (includes example)

    To all Microsoft performance victims (not including victims of nearly every other unjustified Microsoft software performance issues), the blurriness of Photo App has nothing to do with resolution or scaling. It is the same problem as the Bing search engine
    (slow).

    Bring up your photo and just leave it for 1 minute. Microsoft software is so incredibly slow that it takes light-years in processor time to process the simplest of things.

    After 1 minute your photo will be crystal clear (thanks Microsoft for failing to immediately render simple processing tasks - like what user would wait 1 minute for something to do its job - they are automatically going to think its a software resolution
    problem).

    Just wait 1 minute guys.
