Windows 10: Photos App no longer working...

Is there anyone except me who is experiencing being unable to open photos anymore? I can't open any photos in Windows Explorer anymore. If I bring up a folder of photos and click on one to open it, it says, "The specified feature could not be found." Has anybody else experienced this and, if so, did you manage to get it fixed, and how?

:)
