Hello, for a while now I've been having a problem when I want to open a photo; the Windows 10 Photos app opens and then closes immediately with the error message "File system error -2147219196". At first, I thought it was a virus, so I ran tests with AdwCleaner and Zhpdiag, and both indicated that there were no issues. Then I realized that the photos opened with other software without any problem. I uninstalled and then reinstalled the Windows 10 Photos app, but it didn't help. I've also completed all Windows updates, so I don't know what to do next, and I'd rather not reset Windows. I'd like to know if you have a solution; thank you in advance.

Hi,
AdwCleaner is used to remove adware, which is of no interest in your case.
You should even uninstall it.
The same goes for ZHPDiag, it's useless.
Only use Malwarebytes for viruses.

A complete reinstallation should solve the problem.

Thank you for your reply. I scanned with Malwarebytes, found no viruses, the check disk shows no issues, and resetting the application does not change anything.
Hello,
I am no longer the only one having this problem.
I will try a reset if it continues to persist.

I also have the same problem with all my photos, whether from the camcorder or the mobile phone. Recent and old photos from a few years ago.
What should I do?
Thank you

The issue is with the Photos app and not your documents.

especially with QuickLook.

Thank you very much for the help.
The good thing about Windows is that we're always looking for solutions with each update.
As for me, it was by reinstalling Win 10 to reset everything that I got this error! Find the mistake . . . .
