I preferred the old Windows Photo Viewer to the new Photo app in Windows
10. I've had to replace my old laptop with a new one with Windows 10
pre-installed. Supposedly a pre-installed version, as opposed to an
upgraded version does not contain WPV and it cannot be installed.
However, I have just opened a photo file which is a .gif rather than a
.jpeg and it opened in WPV, so it's obviously in there somewhere as the
default program for .gifs - and shows up as that on the list of default
apps.
My question is: does anyone know if it's possible to make it the default
app for .jpegs? It doesn't show up as an option in the apps list, nor
does a search for "Windows Photo Viewer" yield any results on this PC.
It's not critical by any means, but any advice would be gratefully received,
