  1. Pictures and Windows/users/pictures


    I file my photos in the Pictures folder, and have created subfolders.

    I move photos between the subfolders, change the taken date, rename them.

    When viewing them in the Photo App, if I select Open in Files, I'm directed to Windows/users/pictures.

    The files in Windows/users/pictures aren't the same.

    Is my Pictures folder just a shortcut?

    Is Windows/users/pictures a duplicate?

    I don't understand the difference...

    Using Win10, up to date

    Quick Access not searching Pictures folder

    Summary, that last suggestion didn't work.

    • I moved the pictures to another folder temporarily.


    • Since there were no troubleshooting steps for this scenario, just for the heck of it, I ran through the restore steps. Copied some pictures into the Pictures folder, ran a Quick Access search and initial problem remains: Searching all of QA doesn't find any files in Pictures folder, running search on just the Pictures folder does. I want to run a global search and find matching files in any/all of the Documents, Music, Videos, and Pictures folders.
    That article dates from 2015 and I'm guessing is out of date. I hope it didn't create potential future problems in my registry.

    Bottom line: I'm still looking for a fix.
     
  3. Remove User Account Picture

    Hi Shawn, thanks for all the great tutorials, I use them often myself or make reference to them.

    Do the listed steps actually work on vers 1903? As I mentioned in my preceding post, Ten Forward and I both replaced User.png instead of User-192.png in order to have success with vers 1809.

    Pictures in Windows 10

    Hi Sugar,

    Apologize for the late reply.

    Are you able to find other files and folders on Windows 10?

    I suggest you to have a look for Windows 8.1 pictures in Windows.old folder.

    Try the following steps:

    • Press Windows + E keys to open Windows explorer
    • Press C:\ Drive
    • under C: drive look for Windows.old folder
    • open users under Windows.old

    Try the search for pictures in here.

    Regards
