1000's of digital photos

Options
Hi
Trying to sort my digital photos into date order, it’s a long job as have many folders along with duplicates of these, imported from various sources.
W10 photos appears to be able but trouble is it defaults to the c drive which happens to be my smaller SSD not my HDD and can’t change this.
Anyone used and recommend a program to do this?
For duplicates have been using ccleaner.

Thanks

  • Windows Photo is probably defaulting to your Pictures folder, which is a special system folder that usually lives at C:\Users\guy999\

    You can change that location by making a new Pictures folder on your HDD and then changing the Properties --> Location of the system folder

    And that will move any photos from C:\Users\guy999\ to the new folder on the HDD too.

  • I still use picasa to sort pictures on old drives.

    It will scan the drives/folders you select and it will even match faces, it will pick a face from a wedding photo of 50+ people.
