I work with hundreds of images daily, flicking through site photographs and importing those that I need into a document as part of my reporting process. It's always worked smoothly (under Windows 7 Pro) to have the photographs open in Windows Photo Gallery on one of my side monitors with the file name conveniently shown on the taskbar, allowing me to locate the photograph of interest in the project folder and drag it into my document.
After updating from Windows 7 Pro to Windows 10 Pro (x64), I have had a strange artifact issue when opening JPGs using Windows Photo Gallery (random white chequered pattern in the upper left quadrant of the image; does not always appear and can often be cleared by zooming/unzooming) and have therefore had to switch to using the new Photos app. Unfortunately Microsoft, in their wisdom, have changed the taskbar name to a static 'Photos' listing rather than the filename of the open image.
The only way by which I can see the open image name now is to open the File Info window in Photos, which introduces a new sidebar with the relevant detail. Unfortunately as my secondary monitors are both portrait 1200x1600, the sidebar drastically reduces the size of the image itself - not ideal, and it's proving a frustration.
Is there any way by which the Photos app can be modified by a registry hack or similar to show the open image filename rather than just 'Photos'? I know this is a pretty unusual complaint so I'm not expecting a solution here, but thought I'd throw it out there anyway in case it's annoying someone smarter than myself too =P
