    OK, well the cause of this problem is due to the attempt to restore the sadly missed 'Windows Photo Viewer'. The procedure as outlined in TenForums tutorial: 'Restore Windows Photo Viewer in Windows 10' causes image file types to be listed as 'Unhandled Extension Handler Finder.
    It's a damn shame because I much prefer 'Photo Viewer' over 'Photos'.
    If there's another method of restoring 'Photo Viewer' without the file type problem I'd be happy to hear it.
    Thanks folks.
    You superstar! Thanks for posting this explanation. Very helpful indeed. :)

    UPDATE: In case others in need find this thread
    Have had the same problem recently in Windows 10 v2004 (19041.264) and found that the only way to completely clear the 'Unhandled Extension Handler Finder' problem was to run a "Repair" on the Microsoft Photos App from the "Advanced options" choices.

    I'd be very tempted to uninstall all of the above too. Each to their own though. :)
