  1. Searching for multiple people in Photos?


    Within the Photos app in Windows, how do I select multiple people to search my photos for?


    For example, if I want to see all my photos with 'person X' in them, I just go to People and select 'person X' and it shows me photos with only that person in them. I want to see photos with person X and person Y. How do I select multiple people to filter on?


    Thank you!

    :)

    Synching Photos in the People App Across Devices

    I tried a forum search for this question but I couldn't find help.

    I have an Outlook.com account that I use on two Windows 10 phones, a Windows 10 PC, and two Surface Pros. I use the People App with the same Outlook.com account on these devices. Although the complete list of contacts shows on each of the devices (and the lists appear complete), only some of the embedded photos show on the devices, except for one of the Windows 10 phones (which is where the photos were added). Some of the photos do show on the other devices. Strangely enough, when I use Edge to view People (Outlook – free personal email and calendar from Microsoft) all photos show in the contacts listed using the browser.

    Does anyone have any advice on how to get all photos to show on the synched devices? I've tried about everything I could find searching.

    Searching for multiple people in Photos?

    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 Searching for multiple people in Photos? :) 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.
