So when viewing a folder with pictures on your computer in Windows, you could always right click a picture file and then click Preview. This opens it in the Windows Photo Viewer. You could then immediately click the next icon and it would bring you to the next picture in the folder.
Now in Windows 10 the Next button is never active and doesn't work, so you have to close the picture, and then right click the next one, and preview again. Even the play slideshowbutton (the button in the middle) doesn't work.
Anyone know how to get it working, or maybe an alternate better solution?

This is a bug (err, limitation?) in Photo Viewer where, in certain cases, the presence of non-picture files (in the same folder as the pictures you're viewing) prevents the forward/back/slideshow buttons from working. Under the hood, Photo Viewer may believe there is only one picture when there are more.
Don't count on Microsoft fixing the issue any time soon, if at all. There are plenty of excellent 3rd-party alternatives that will see you right.
