    Photos won't open


    Computer has been freezing like crazy but since last update when I try to open my photos I

    get the message.... This app can't open. There's a problem with Photos. Contact your system administrator

    about repairing or reinstalling it. Tried the systems quick test but it failed. Can anyone help.

    :)

  4. Photos won't open

    Photos are opening with Paint instead of Photos app

    Hello,

    It's likely that your default application for opening photos is Paint. To change your default program in Windows 10 from
    Paint to the Photo app, we suggest that you perform the following steps:

    • On the Start menu, select Settings.
    • Go to System, then go to Default apps.
    • Select Photos or any app that you like to be the default under
      Photo viewer.

    Update us if the steps above helped you in resolving your concern.
