File system error (-2147219194) appeared when I try to open a jpg or png file using Microsoft Photos, but it does not happen with other programs like Paint3D, and GIMP. Troubleshoot by resetting the App did not help.

    Hello,

    This is widely reported and known issue at the moment. We're expecting a fix from Microsoft, in upcoming Windows Updates.

    As of now, you can use classic Windows Photo Viewer to view photos:

    To edit Photos, you can use MS Paint or third-party program such as Paint.net, IrfanView.

    Regards.

    Hi Yap,

    This is caused by a bug in the latest Windows 10 update

    Hundreds of users have been reporting this over the last few days

    Hopefully Microsoft will release a patch for this bug soon as there is no fix currently

    Please report this on the Feedback Hub, the more users that report this, the quicker Microsoft will come out with a patch

    On your PC, press the Windows Key + F to open the feedback Hub
