Windows 10: Problems with Photos handler on Lenovo

I use the Photos app on my laptop to upload photos from camera SD card and from iphone. Selected to organize in date folders.

1. system finds X number of "new" photos---but most are already IN date folders on my computer!

2. system puts pix shot after a certain hour into the NEXT DAY's date folder...a date that has not even happened yet! Time designations/settings on computer and phone and camera are all correct. Correct time zones too.


Anyone else have these problems? Who can I contact?? Not even sure where to post this problem!!

Unhandled Extension Handler Finder?

You superstar! Thanks for posting this explanation. Very helpful indeed.

 

Unhandled Extension Handler Finder?

Yup, I already did that in 'Choose default applications by type'.
JPG, PNG & TIF are set to Windows Photo Viewer but beneath item in the list of file types Windows lists their default application.
For example .PDF has a description of Adobe Acrobat Document followed by the application - in that case it is of course Adobe Acrobat Reader.
However, .PNG (& other common graphic files) is described as Unhandled Extension Handler Finder followed by the application Windows Photos Viewer.
I can readily change the default application but it makes no difference to the description/type: Unhandled Extension Handler Finder

 

Lost default photo viewer after profile rebuild


Thanks Brink. I've tried those steps before i started searching Google. After the profile rebuild i don't have the Photo app listed to choose to make it default in either the system settings for default apps or the Open With option.

I can't even find it doing a search. Seems to have been removed somehow with the profile rebuild, which doesn't make sense.

Might be helpful to list what i've done I've done the open with check, the choose default program in the system menu, tried that in device manager default programs also. I've checked the programs and features Turn windows features on/off and it's not listed there (never thought it was but that was a suggestion), searched the MS Store, it's not listed there either.

I don't like playing in the registry unless i have defined steps and haven't found anything for this yet, just the Win7 version like in my OP.
