I love Photo Gallery, and have used it a lot, but it will not open now without Microsoft SQL Server 2005, which i recently uninstalled as it was end-of-life and insecure.

Any suggestions for making Photo Gallery work, or for a suitable alternative please?

I am running Windows 10 64 bit.

Thank you.

Hi! Bill! I have W10 and I'm not having any trouble with Photo Gallery. You could try Photo! Here's screen shot. Hope this helps!

Thank you to Holdum333,

That was kind of you. I suspect Microsoft is trying to make us pay for its more useful apps. I am going to have another look at Photo, but I don't think it does the simple basic editing which is what I use Photo Galley for, such as cropping, exposure compensation and red eye removal, but we shall see. Thanks again for your help.

Hi Bill! I'm having no problems. Did you try the link I attached ?? Did you read the link from groovypost.com?

I'm not sure what Microsoft SQL Server 2005 is?? See if this helps!

Thanks again Holdum333. I have just had another look at the Photos app and it can do the basic fixes I was after, so thank you for the suggestion.

Hi Your welcome! I'm using the Photo Gallery on W10 and I do not have a problem using it, or Photos. I prefer Photos, but it's what ever you get use to and like.
