In the spirit of frequent updates, we now have our first Store Update of a Windows10 Universal application - the Photos app. Here's the announcement, from the Insider Hub program inside Windows 10 ( in case you are experiencing problems and can't see it):įirst Store update of a Windows10 Universal app - the Photos app The change, up to version 15.130.1615.0, came in through the beta version of the Windows Store - not through Windows Update. Microsoft spokesman Gabe Aul announced Monday afternoon that Microsoft slipped an update to the build 9926 Photos app over the weekend. In short, the original Windows 10 Photos app is forgettable in almost every conceivable way. 131126, had a few placeholders for new features - specifically an Albums view and a Folders view - but aside from duplicate removal (which didn't work very well) and a revamped way of navigating to folders, it's very nearly identical to the Photos app in Windows 8.1. The Photos app that shipped with Windows 10 build 9926, identified as Windows Photos. The Windows 8.1 incarnation of the Metro Photos app had few features, and drew widespread scorn. While the new Photos app isn't significantly better than the woefully inadequate one it replaced, the update mechanism imperils those who want to keep some modicum of control over their machines. Over the weekend, Microsoft updated the Windows 10 January Tech Preview in a unique way: It pushed a Microsoft-written Universal app from the Windows Store and onto all PCs running beta 9926.
