Can I add a personal photo from my "Photo File" to the background in Windows 10? I tried downloading a security program (Norton 360) recently and it crashed my computer (Toshiba Satellite) leaving me with a black screen. I had to send the computer back to the company.

View 3 Repliesthe background for the windows 10 photo app is black, and that is bad for transparent png and gif files. i normally wont use it but the desktop photo viewer is giving trouble is there a way i can change the background color to white?
View 1 RepliesFor some reason I have lost use of the Edit Photo options. How to get it back? I can open the photos just fine. But when I click on the edit buttons it says "Can't edit. We are having trouble opening this file for editing." I have not change my file types or anything else. Tried several different pictures and it just keep saying the same thing. Was working just fine for the last 2 years.
View 1 RepliesI am having problems using the default photo viewer in windows 10. For one thing when I download a photo, I am not given any option on where to save the photo. When I get the photo to open, there is a band at the top of the page which covers part of the photo.
View 5 RepliesMy windows 10 Alienware laptop randomly blue screened and its not to shocking seeing, as all our windows 10 computers seem to bluescreen like its going out of style. but I googled the error tag and proceeded to fix it. The error was a Nvidia driver outdated and I then updated.
But I realized my background changed and to my horror was the same background as my primary PC (desktop gaming rig) There are a few ways the laptop and the desktop are connected Steam Geforce etc/Im a little concerned because I'm almost positive I have never once downloaded the same wallpaper on this laptop. and why it would steal my desktops wallpaper and replace it after BSOD I dont understand.
the BSOD was "System Thread Exception Not Handled".Here is the first set of my dxdiag.txt right after the bluescreen. too much text for an upload site

I have just copied some photos from my old laptop onto my new one which has windows 10. The photos were sorted into folders called 'boat', 'pets', 'family', 'trees', 'for printing' etc each containing photos taken on more than one occasion. Now on my new laptop they are sorted into date folders and all my photos are mixed up.How do I get my folders back and how do I make sure this doesn't happen next time I copy photos across?

View 1 RepliesMy Windows 10 PC used to allow me to import only new photos from my iPhone but today it wants to import everything again and duplicate what is already there.
Is there a setting that prevents this from happening as sorting out the duplicates each time I back up the phone is going to be a nightmare
My wife has a Win7 desktop machine that she uses for stuff brought home from work, but also keeps a collection of photos that she posts to Facebook, etc.
Rather than let her deal with any fallout from an automatic Win10 upgrade While I wasn't around, I did it manually myself from a 1511 ISO. Apart from failing to carry over the installed Intel HD Graphics drivers (a common occurrence), things went fine.
Last night she was using the machine, and paused for dinner while writing a lecture. From the other room we heard several barrages of musical chimes coming from the office. Each time I ran into her workroom and saw nothing new on the screen.
After the 5th volley, I looked more closely; checking the notifications icon in the systray, and noticed that it had flagged new notifications. What were they? "Look at the photo album I created for you!!!". Five times. Geez.
How to turn off this behavior, delete the "automatic" and unwanted albums, and prevent this from happening again?
Jpg photo unable to open in windows photo viewer. i reset default apps. i choose default apps by file type.
View 9 RepliesI've already know this problem of mine is a rather common problem among Windows 10 users. When I wish to open a picture with our good old Windows Photo Viewer, simply nothing happens or even if something does happen, that's an error message that's it.
It's not like there is a problem with the new "Photos" app but it's quite slow compared to the old one and crashes more frequent than it should..
I have Windows 10 and have a photo in my pictures folder in jpg format. There is no icon on that screen enabling me to print that photo. How to do it?
View 6 RepliesI can't slowly scroll through my files or make it through an entire before the OS returns my page to the first line of photos. It's practically detrimental to my work-flow as I am a photographer. I can't look through my files to choose my next project with the files suddenly disappearing from my screen.
Is there a system-wide bug, a ubiquitous problem with this, and if so how can I debug it?
As the title says it all, ever since the upgrade, the current screensaver called the Photo Gallery stopped working, all my other screen savers work.
View 6 RepliesSince updating to windows 10 when I import pictures they go straight into the new photo viewer app but I cant figure out how to get them to my pictures. I am using turbo lister for ebay and I cant find a way to the imported pictures.
View 4 Replieslocate this photo. it was shown in my lock screen unfortunately i can not locate it anymore.
View 5 RepliesI noticed a few builds ago (maybe 10162) that you could no longer set Windows Photo Viewer as the default picture opener. Now, it seems that MS is forcing you to use the Photos "app" instead.
View 9 RepliesI like Windows Photo Viewer and this impostor has taken over my machine. It probably came from a recent "Upgrade?". Now when I click on the lower left window. I get an also black window.
So I have two questions how do I get ride of this unwanted program that was made the default view, which means extra step to review an image.
Second how do I get back the white window for general information, like getting to the Control Panel?
t how to keep the image from being posted twice
When I click on the Browse button to find a photo to use for my sign on page, nothing happens.
I've attached a screen shot of the Settings page I am referring to. Browse Button does not work.
I cannot find a way to move photos from one of the automatically created albums to another existing album. There seems to be no way to tag them as there was in previous versions. Many of my photos are old family pictures scanned over a period of years. Being automatically placed in albums according to date makes finding them very difficult.
View 1 RepliesFrom first time untill 2 years ago I took photos with compact camera, report photo number and write (on a paper note) what I see. Go in office, download photo to my computer and report on a Word document with table (or excel). Lots of work hours gone away for nothing...
1 year ago I leveled UP... Buyed a new iPhone6 and used Google drive to share and modify my document. I finally can take photo and directly annotate what I see. At office I have only to do little change at files, no big work!
2 months after... I bought a Note4. Use Google drive to modify my document and add notes. Plus: Better with pen, bigger screen.
This is fully working right now Just a problem, Note4 or iPhone 6 screens are really tiny for my work, so...
So I think about SP4, a lot bigger screen , Try to do same things with my notebook (HP Core I5, SSD and Windows 10) with Office 2013/2016 and the integrated webcam. No way to do..
I can't take a photo and put DIRECTLY into the word document. I need to take photo and than import to my documents, that is a problems when I do my work. I can open Camera App and put in background, from Word can take a screenshot but I lose a lot of time and the details is not good. If I go inside Word16, insert pictures, I can see a shortcut to Windows 10 CameraRoll app. So I checked how to put here the Camera APP. NO WAY, again.
So check One Note. This can take a picture direct from camera, take notes. Checked on YouTube that I can write with the pen. Try to my notebook. I can't export OneNote file into Word DOC format.
I have recently upgraded from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10. I have always printed from Windows Photo Viewer.
Now when I try to print, the paper stops feeding but if I use Photos there are no problems. I would prefer to continue using Windows Photo Viewer.
Is there a solution or am I stuck with Photos? I am using an Epson Workforce 320.
i installed windows 10 home on a new ssd from scratch, all is going great except the image viewer is making me a bit dizzy from the scrolling while viewing images.
i'm thinking there must be a way to disable that effect when changing pictures and just have them appear , or fade in, fade out ?
Or if you have alternative apps to suggest that does roughly the same thing, like full-screen, copy/move images or folders of images, yunno to manage the collection.
In the Photo App amongst all my photos there are pictures of photo albums and calendars, what these are? There is an option to delete them,would it be safe to do so as they don't seem of any use.
View 5 RepliesOkay so another Windows 10 weird issue! I am trying to make IrfanView my default photo viewer app. However, Windows will not let this be! When I try to choose a default, but this app is not even recognized. What I can do is actually click on a image file and have those open in each app by default (as well as make some changes in "Choose default apps by file type" --> although this doesn't work for everything), but why can't I just make the setting change under default apps?
