    Windows Keeps resetting app preferences

    Hi DanielGibbons,

    We understand that you are having issues with your Windows app preferences. Please answer the questions below so we can assist you further:

    • What specific update was applied on your Windows 10?
    • Did it also reset your PC settings configuration, or just the app preferences specifically for videos and picture files?
    • Did you make any changes prior to this issue?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

    In the meantime, you can also try the steps below and check if it will work:

    1. Perform a clean boot.
    It will start Windows by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. Also, it helps eliminate software conflicts that occur when you install a program, or an update, or when you run a program in Windows.

    2. Once done, try to set again your preferences for videos and picture files.

    Let us know how it goes.

    Thanks,
