Question

email one drive view all photos and it changes on its own

Cheryl Lewis 40

email - one drive - I select "view all photos" and it constantly changes on its own to add music and scroll through other photos - I don't want that happening as I have duplicate or triplicate photos or I'm wanting to edit something and quickly it changes from my VIEW ALL PHOTOS on a SELECTED DAY ... make it stop changing on it own!

I have all the setting in notifications set - why does it automatically change from my VIEW that i selected?

If the screen is switching into a memory-style slideshow with music, turn off OneDrive Memories notifications and mute the slideshow behavior.

I do not want to turn this day off - I want this day ON

I don't want it changing AFTER I SELECTED VIEW THE DAY

Hi @Cheryl Lewis

I understand that you want to keep “On this day” enabled, but after selecting View all photos for a specific day, you want the photos to remain on that selected day instead of automatically changing while you are viewing or editing them.

The notification setting only controls whether “On this day” memories are shown; it does not control the automatic slideshow behavior. Currently, OneDrive does not provide a separate setting to keep Memories enabled while disabling the automatic photo progression. You can mute the music using the speaker icon, but the photos may still advance automatically.

Since this is part of the current OneDrive Memories experience, I recommend submitting feedback through OneDrive to request an option for viewing the selected photos manually without automatic changes.Please note that this is a user-to-user support forum.

I have tried to notify MS it's difficult - I've tried feedback - why so complicated - hopefully other people are feeling the same way I do?

Hi @Cheryl Lewis

I understand your frustration. Thank you for taking the time to submit feedback and share your experience here. While the community cannot influence feature decisions directly, feedback submitted through OneDrive is the appropriate channel for the product team to review user suggestions. Hopefully, other users with similar concerns will also add their feedback, as that can help highlight interest in the feature.

Yes, I went to OneDrive, and I left my feedback - as you say, hopefully more people will mention the same, and then MS might fix that BUG
