    photos folder. when I click on it I can't see the actual pictures


    Hi folks, just signed up. When I click on my photos folder I can't see the actual photos, only a blue 'mountain symbol. I have a new laptop and have had no trouble like this on my previous laptops. Please can anyone tell me what I have to do to see them properly? Thank you :)

    Hi, try this setting: (bottom one). If I have the Photos app as the default program and tick that box, I see its blue mountain icon. Also ensure your View setting is appropriate. (Size).
