Windows 10 picture importing

SpagettiNinja

So i was helping my parents with some computer stuff. They have recently upgraded to windows 10 and had some small problems with different things, which i was able to fix without any problems.

But there is one thing i want to improve on a bit more if possible, and that is how to import pictures from a camera.

On Windows 7, the second you plugged in the camera, the window came up asking what you wanted. You would click "import pictures blabla" and it imported the pictures. 

On Windows 10, i have now made it that it does say the "import pictures" stuff (Not enabled by default apparently, wtf Microsoft), but my problem is that it has to be done through the new "Photo" app, which is a piece of shit. I would prefer to do it the "old" way, with just the window opening and clicking import (Like, through windows explorer or whatever it used), and not having the Photo app and stuff open. I dont believe this is possible, but if anyone knows anything, i would appreciate it.

I know, i know, i did that too. My question was about the importing process itself, not the viewing. I sorted that out already.

Something you can configure in AutoPlay?

 

 

Type AutoPlay in start menu, select that program. Play with it a little bit.

That is actually harder than the option we have right now, which i described. Which.. seems to work at the moment, anyways.

There are a bunch of options, but the only "usable" import option really is the Photo app. Although i would prefer to use the like "Windows Explorer" kind of importing, which was actually easier and.. well, more automatic, even, than this Windows 10 option.
