Windows 10: The Your Phone app isn't finding most recent photos

I'm working on a project where I'd like to use OfficeLens to take a picture (and it IS getting saved as a jpg file; I checked), and immediately get it to my PC with the Your Phone app. I know the app only shows the most recent photos, but I don't mind doing these hundreds of them one at a time, because it will save so much time if I can get it to work. The Your Phone app will not show the most recent photo, however, even if I save it to my phone's Gallery in OfficeLens. It seems to only show photos I take with the camera app. I'm using a Samsung Galaxy S8.


What's the best way to get this to work?

Printer isn´t working after latest update.

After the latest update from Windows, my Canon Pixma ip6600 printer isnt working. In Device Manager it shows up as working properly but when I go to print it isn´t listed as an option in any programs. Troubleshoot suggests it´s a USB 2 printer on a USB
3 port and that that´s the problem but that cant be since it worked fine before the update. I´ve tried to uninstall and plug it back in but that doesn´t work either.
