    Maybe I'm misunderstanding what you are doing but the default W10 Photo App always opens gif's correctly for me.

  3. From what I understood, the OP was using Windows Photo Viewer. From what I know, that never did and was never supposed to play gifs.

    I would suggest moving onto something like nomacs | Image Lounge (yes, it does play gifs nicely) before Microsoft removes or cripples its older products (Windows Photo Viewer) even more.

    Thank You Mooly ! That worked! I was using photo viewer for year!

    Now I consider this issue CLOSED! But there is nothing to mark it closed.
