  • Windows Photo App Blown Out
    Yep, had same issue. Doesn't seem to be a solid fix, so I ended up downloading nomacs. https://nomacs.org/ Crazy lightweight, and supports file formats that photo viewer can't. Also nice having almost zero lag when opening images, or scrolling forward AND backwards while in the program. - Source: Reddit / 9 months ago
