Windows 10: Pictures rotating automatically to landscape with no option to change orientation

Hey guys,


I'm really getting fed up with windows 10. It always seems to think it knows what you want better than you do.


I'm currently having issues with photos. Whenever I open a Picture in portrait orientation, the programme automatically turns it to landscape. If I try to change it back it either returns it to landscape or turns it upside-down.


Has anyone else had this issue or know how to resolve it?

:)

 

Automatic screen rotation - always upside down

You can re-enable this feature, go trough the next steps.

• Go to the Desktop App.
  
• Right Click (using the mouse, or touching and holding until the Square appears).
  
• Click on Screen Resolution.
  
• Check to see if Allow the screen to auto-rotate is checked
  -Ensure that Orientation is set to Landscape.

screen orientation

Hi,

There's an option on Windows 10 to switch between landscape and portrait orientation. We recommend following these steps on how to switch the screen orientation from portrait to landscape:

• On Cortana search, type display settings.
• Choose Display settings from the list.
• Under Orientation, select on Landscape and click
  Apply.

Display opens in landscape orientation, but changes to portrait flipped automatically

My issue: Upon firing up my laptop (windows 10), my log in screen will appear in landscape orientation, as is the norm. However, if I leave it for about 3-5 seconds, regardless of whether I put in my password or not, my screen orientation automatically flips
to portrait flipped.

What I've tried already:

- Going into settings and flipping orientation back to landscape. This DOES flip back to landscape and it will remain this way, until I put my laptop in sleep mode, close the lid, or shutdown. When I open back up again, my screen orientation flips again.

- Going into settings and searching for a way to change a setting, if there is one. There is none that I can tell.

- Searching around the web for an answer, however, I just come up with solutions for a flipped screen with the easy fix of changing the orientation back using the control+alt+arrow keys method or settings, both of which work temporarily until I open my laptop
again.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
