Disable automatic photo editing in Windows 10
With the preinstalled photo app in Windows 10, you can not only display pictures, but also edit them extensively. The tool automatically optimizes your photos as soon as you open them. However, you can switch off the function at any time.
- To do this, search for "Photos" in the Windows search and open the app of the same name.
- Then click on the gear icon at the bottom left.
- In the "View and edit" section you will find the entry "Automatically improve my photos".
- Set the switch to "Off" here and close the photo app.
- All images that you open in the app in the future will be displayed without improvements. So you have exactly the natural look on your screen.
