    Photos not sorting correctly


    When I use an app like Photos to browse through pics in a folder, it does not respect the sorting order I want. Moreover, if I start from a pic down the list and I want to see the next pic, the viewer jumps all the way back to the top and starts from the first pic. I can't figure out how to fix it.

    :)

    How to sort photos in Windows essentials photo gallery.

    Hi John,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I understand that you want to sort your pictures in the way you want them. Kindly take note that the only options to sort your photos in Photo Gallery are the following:

    • Date taken
    • Date modified
    • File size
    • Image size
    • Rating
    • Caption
    • File name
    Also I suggest follow the below steps.

    Press ALT + W + K, one after other & check if the photos are shown in the order they were taken.

    I hope this helps.

    Thanks & regards.

    Mohammed Ali.

    How to sort photos in Windows essentials photo gallery.

    Thanks for your response, but that doesn't seem to do anything in the Photos app I am running under Windows 10.

    You mentioned Photo Gallery so I think you may be talking about a different application than the one I am using..

    John
