How Do I Update Windows Photo Gallery?
Contents

1. Click “Start,” “All Programs,” then “Windows Photo Gallery” to launch the application. Windows Photo Gallery’s main screen appears. If an update is available, a dialog box containing the heading “An update to Windows Photo Gallery is available” appears immediately after Windows Photo Gallery launches.

Note: Do not forget that Windows Photo Gallery has been discontinued and Microsoft no longer offers support for it. If you have any issues with the app, you’ll have to solve them on your own.

It’s easy to get the trusty old Windows Photo Viewer back — simply open up Settings and go to System > Default apps. Under “Photo viewer,” you should see your current default photo viewer (probably the new Photos app). Click this to see a list of options for a new default photo viewer.
