    Windows Photos on Windows 10 slow on loading image orientation data on .cr3 files


    I'm currently having issues with opening portrait .cr3 files on the Windows photo app. For portrait oriented photos ie. orientation set to rotate 90 degrees it loads the file as a landscape shot first at 75% size, then adjusts to the correct orientation and size with an additional 'filter' over the image that changes the colors of the original photo. I'm wondering if there is a setting in Windows photos on Windows 10 that can:


    1. integrate the orientation data so that it would load the photo in the correct orientation faster on .cr2 files I have there is no additional orientation data and so portrait photos always load as portrait orientation


    2. disable the automatically generated "photo enhancements" that photos overlay to cut down on loading time on the photos. I have read a thread from 2016 listing the setting under Settings > Viewing and Editing but that specific setting is not there in my version of the app.

    :)

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

    displaying CR3 images

    Hi FrankMH61,

    I am an independent advisor and a Microsoft user like you, and I would be happy to help you out with this.

    In a previous discussion thread from last year, a Canon representative confirms that they no longer make codecs to view thumbnails of RAW images in Windows Explorer.

    https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/for...

    I am sorry to be the bearer of bad news. However, these images will still be viewable using their software, Digital Photo Professional, or other compatible software that open CR3 files.

    Regards,

    -Ashton

    Hi,

    I upgraded my Canon camera to a new one that takes CR3 raw images. When can I expect Windows 10 to display these files? thanks
