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.

    Thank you very much for your feedback.  Presently, I am doing the same thing, creating folders manually.  Unfortunately we are in 

    building envelope restoration and we take countless pictures our periods of time for the same project and this operation is time consuming and

    counterproductive.

    I hope Microsoft will consider reinstalling this feature soon.  Removing a feature that works well and saves time seems amateurish

    at best.

    Regards

    I am having the same problem as what others reported.  The Photos app used to store my imported images in a designated folder by year and month.  Now it just dumps them into the Pictures main folder which is extremely frustrating.  I have not made any changes to my camera settings. 

    This needs to be fixed.

    This is an update problem. I was having having this problem like the rest of you on my main computer. After spending lots of time trying to correct it I decided to get out another computer that I us mainly when I travel. I took a few pictures and downloaded from the chip and it put the pictures in a dated album. So I started looking at what the difference in settings might be between computers. I was interrupted for several hours and when I came back my travel compute must have updated because now it acts like my main computer when loading pictures.

    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".
