Restore Windows Photo Viewer in Windows 10  

Hello Brink
Thank you for taking the time to respond
The files are on a server, sorted by date, no groups
I just moved to desktop and the result is the same
One weird issue is I do not have the double "image preview" in the menu that is mentioned with the sort order registry change
I did re-download the registry key and compare to what I am using
Restore_Windows_Photo_Viewer_ALL_USERS_with_Sort_order_fix.reg
They are identical
No biggie another issue for another day
Have a great Holiday!

OK a DOH! moment, to sort you need to use the OPEN entry and not the IMAGE PREVIEW entry which is what I was using!
YIKES I need a Vacation....

WebP files need to be added.

I might check that out. Thanks.

Windows Photo Viewer may not be available in the near future, so a light photo viewer replacement would be good.
The Windows Photos app is a poor replacement for a viewer. You can't even scroll through photos with your keyboard arrow keys.

I did as seen on Fix: Image Preview missing from the Context Menu in Windows 10 | Gear up Windows 11/10 and restarted windows. I see preview in context menu, but it doesn't work. I see text (translated from my language): "windows can't access this device, folder or file. You may not have the appropriate rights to access the item."

Thanks again for this fix which I used on Win 10

Just wondering if it works on Win 11 before I pull the trigger on the upgrade

I presume the upgrade will wreck the fix on my current Win 10 (?) but can it be refixed again after the upgrade?

^Thanks again Brink

Downloading now for better or for worse
I have not read much about Win11 but fortune favours the brave
