    Missing "Photo Gallery" on Screen Saver

    Thanks Kermit, but you are talking about "Photos" and I was asking about "Photos Gallery".

    In the following link, talk about this feature. This feature is used when you add a folder of pictures for the lock screen and I want to use the same as screen saver (without lock the computer)

    Screen Saver Photo Gallery: Photos Taken in Portrait Orientation Appear Sideways

    I run Windows 10 Home on my PC.

    Under Screen Saver Settings, I've chosen to have the screen saver use photos from my Pictures folder.

    Steps I took: Control Panel > Personalization >Screen Saver (Settings) > In the drop down menu I chose the "Photo Gallery" option, then specified the subfolder to use.

    As the screen saver cycles through the photos in my chosen folder, all the shots I originally took in portrait orientation appear sideways. None of those rotates automatically.

    It's a bug in Windows 10. Hundreds of people have registered the same problem in numerous online forums.

    It should be quick and easy for Microsoft to fix and include in the next update. Does anyone know a way to reach Microsoft to have this problem addressed?

    Photo collage screen saver in Windows 10

    I'm seeing it in Windows 10, using screen saver "Photo Gallery" and when the "Settings" box is clicked a new "Photo Gallery Screen Saver Settings" window pops up. At the bottom are two boxes to choose "theme" and "speed". In double checking this, I see
    that you need to choose "Photo Gallery" as the screen saver in order for the theme choice to pop up in the next set of settings. If you have "Photos" chosen you will get a different set of settings to choose from then what you would get if "Photo Gallery"
    is chosen. So "Photo Gallery" chosen as the screen saver is the key to being able to chose collage as a theme.
