I'm not sure what happened but usually I can download pics from sd card and they go to a folder with the date.  Now each pic is saved individually.  How can I get it back to the way it was before.

    In case this NOT a behavior you like, you may open start and search for feedback and open Feedback Hub app and share your concern, make sure elaborate like how it used to be and how it has been changed and why you don't like this new improvement.

    "why you don't like this new improvement."

    It is not an improvement and no one could possibly imagine it was an improvement to dump all the photos unorganised in the picture folder when you could previously save them in date order folders which were automatically created within pictures. Dropping this feature suggests there is no proper oversight of changes being made. That Microsoft removes features with little or no consideration for the end users.

    I have this same problem and Microsoft needs to find a solution to this. For my work  it has went from a great filing system to hours of mindless work to file photos. Along with  other update  "Improvement " issues, this is probably my last Windows based operating system. Ask  the opinion of anyone who takes hundreds of photos a day. I doubt  you will find much happiness for "Improvement Updates".

    Microsoft wants you to use OneDrive.... wait.... they DON'T want you to use OneDrive because your phot folder is too big... WAIT.... they WANT you to use OneDrive and pay for more storage for your photos.

    That's what it comes down to, and it's obscene.

    I'm glad it helped. Makes you wonder if these updates are worth the risk ? Edge updated and now people are having trouble with the saving the passwords. Save passwords, shut computer down. Next time you start it saved passwords are gone. I'm still trying to figure that out. Chrome updated last fall, and now it is having the same password issue, plus it is pausing sync so you have to keep signing in. It's all crazy.

    Have you used different device or make changes to your Camera setting?

    Are you referring to way it has been sorted there?

    You may right click on the folder and click on Sorted by and select the way you want it to be sorted.
