Windows 10: Tagging multiple people in photos in Windows 10

I have a lot of people tagged in the Photos app in Windows 10. However, there are some pictures of groups where it has only tagged some out of a group of three or four. I can't see a way to manually add a person tag in this case or indeed if I have an untagged photo I can't see how to tag it until that person appears in the People tab in Photos.


Any advice would be very much appreciated.

Tagging people in photos

This is all well and good and that does work, but once you go through the suggested photos and name them there are some that are miss recognized. So I deleted the tag but it does not add the face back to any list to rename it.

How does any new photo being added, scanned and give me the ability to tag it? I don't find any option to have the photo program rescan.

Need some help.

Thanks,

Pat

 

Tagging people option in Photo App

Hey Josephef54!

There is a way to turn off the automatic people tagging in the Photos app.

• Open Photos.
• Click the "..." in the upper right corner of the screen.
• Click Settings
• Scroll down to the "Viewing and Editing" section, and flip "People" switch.
