Windows Live Photo Gallery

[Fred Claus]

I have a client who used windows Live for many years. Now that he has Windows 10, it's not available as of last year on his computer. He asked me to find a program that worked the same way. You can click on the program and see ALL the pictures in his computer no matter what folder they were in. Then you could sort by folder by clicking on one should you choose to. I can't seem to find one that shows all the photos. I found plenty that will show the photos in the folder I click on. Any ideas?

Thanks For some reason my google search didn't pull up the second link you gave me. That's where I found the program I'm looking for.

If you really want, You can use Windows live but you need the full installer. I can make it availiable to you. It currently works on Win 10 but since it is discontinued I cant say for how much longer it will be functional. PM me for the installer. I just installed it just now to test if it still works.

PS. The photo app in 10 is not that bad when you set it up correctly.

Nope. Windows 10 Pro allows every Photo Viewer, including the old Windows Fax and Photo Viewer when you did an upgrade from Windows 7 to 10. As @Porthos said: if you have the full installer it is possible to use Windows Live Photo Gallery on Windows 10 Home and Pro.

As @Porthos said. I've installed Windows Live 2012 in several Win10 machines. I carry it for those that just can't change.....

The following is from the Microsoft website. If someone knows another way to get Live Photo Gallery itself, I would love it.

"Windows Essentials 2012 suite reached end of support on January 10, 2017.

As of January 10, 2017, Windows Essentials 2012 is no longer supported on Windows 10, and is unavailable for download."

If you don't want to use download.com you can also get the last version from https://archive.org/download/wlsetup-all_201704/wlsetup-all.exe
