Print multiple photos in Windows 10 like the old Photo Viewer app could in old Windows 7 / Vista / XP
Microsoft moved the cheese! I kicked myself when I found out how to do this oh-so-simple task. I had expected to be able to do this from the Metro-style "Photos" app ... but no!
tldr; / Summary
In Windows Explorer, select the images to print then right click one and select print
from context menu.
Full explanation with pictures
Open the folder containing the photos you want to print in Windows Explorer, then select the few you want using the normal methods:
- Dragging over them
- Ctrl + A to select all
- Ctrl + Left Mouse Click to select multiple individual ones
- Focus on a picture using keyboard arrow keys and select images using Ctrl + Spacebar (individual) or Shift + Spacebar (range)
Then print them using one of the following:
- Right Click (click with right-hand mouse button) one of the selected photos and choose
print
from the context menu that appears - Click the context menu key some keyboards have (usually box with three lines - a burger) to bring up the menu with the print option
- choose
print
from theShare
ribbon menu options
This then shows the print control you will recognize from your old windows days:
Choose how to print them and you're golden.
