Scrolling through Photos

Hi Inês R,

Thank you for giving your question to us.

You could possibly try these steps:

1. Enable File System Permissions

Go to Settings > Privacy & security > File system.

Ensure File system access is toggled On.

Scroll down to the list of apps and ensure Microsoft Photos is toggled On.

2. Add the Folder as a "Source"

Open the Photos app.

Select the Settings (gear icon) in the top right corner.

Under the Sources section, click Add a folder.

Select the folder where your images are stored. Once indexed, the navigation arrows should appear.

3. Repair or Reset the Application

If the application's internal database is corrupted, it may fail to transition between files even within indexed folders.

Go to Settings > Apps > Installed apps.

Find Microsoft Photos, click the three dots (...), and select Advanced options.

Scroll down and click Repair. If the issue persists, return here and click Reset (Note: Resetting will not delete your photos).
