Where all the photos that I have ever saved will be all in one place?
When I first got this computer, I wasn't sure where to save photos, so they are all over the place, a lot of them in documents etc.
If there is such a place, could you tell me how to access it in case I don't know? TIA.
Open file manager - it looks like a yellow briefcase on your taskbar at the bottom of the screen. In the big search box click on the little arrow and scroll down to choose 'this PC'. In the small search box on the left type .jpeg and hit search. This will bring all your jpeg images up (it will take time) which you can then move to 'pictures' by selecting them all and dragging to the picture folder.
Repeat for the other formats your photos may be in
yes there are
because the police use software to seek out hidden narty narty jay-pegs - no to sniff out hidden photies
so it can be done - - but I havent seen one
Much better explanation here, Barsel Noelia, I got the free switch the same as you and two additional gold bars free. Otherwise it is exactly the same :
Thanks barry, will try that. Your first suggestion didn't yield many photos, but your second suggestion sounds good. I expect it might take some time to do, but will come back later to let you know.
Sorry barry, still not working for me. I got as far as
Next, click the search box at the top right of the window. Doing so will display the otherwise hidden “Search” tab at the top. Switch to that tap, click the “Kind” button, and then select “Pictures” from the drop-down menu.
which is from the link you put on, but there was no 'kind' button, so I typed it in manually as it said you can, but it came back with no items.
Oh heck. I just selected 'this pc' in the big search box and typed 'pictures' in the small search box. My PC is finding thousands of pictures all over the place.
Good luck :D
ok barry I will try that, I'll just type pictures in the little search box and hope it will find the ones that aren't actually in my pictures folder.
Don't go away, but if you have too, come back later. :-)
bookbinder, that's what I'm hoping to do. When I find them, I can delete the ones I don't want, then put the ones I want to keep onto a USB stick. Just got to find the little blighters first.
Now I have a better idea how to look for them, it seems they are in more places that I realised. I've also come across some screenshots, so I think this is going to take me a long long time to sort out. Thanks for all your help.
