windows photo viewer suddenly missing
since years I'm using Windows Photo Viewer to see my pictures (jpg and others)
Suddenly this possibility disappeared, I think due to an automatic update of my system by Microsoft. With the option "open with", I
only get PAINT and 3D PAINT, but I'm not intersted in those programs.
I can find the folder Windows Photo Viewer in my Program Files, but this folder has two subfolders (one Eng and one NL) and both are empty. I don't understand why, because I didn't was deleting them.
I heard it is possible to restore the old PhotoViewer in Win 10 , by inserting a register- script.
Can you help me to find that script ?
Thanks on beforehand.

How to restore default windows font ?
Hi,
After running all the Auslogics BoostSpeed 12 suggestions, the default system font changed into a horrible blurry type of text. This is across the whole system, including File Explorer, Chrome, Microsoft 365 Office apps (Excel, Word, etc), basically everywhere!
I've attached a screenshot from Chrome to illustrate what the default font looks like now.
How do I restore the original default system font?
Thanks and regards

¿Pueden los optimizadores dañar Windows?
Estimados amigos:
He escuchado y leído buena reseñas de ustedes, por eso instalé el programa, sin embargo, en un foro de tecnología, leí que Microsoft, no recomendaba instalar optimizadores, pues podrían dañar el sistema Windows.
¿Qué tan cierto es esto?
Feliz año 2021.

Orphaned Print Spooler Files
I have two Dymo Turbo 450 label printers. A recent Windows 10 update caused them to print blank labels. Dymo wrote new software to address the issue. When I installed the new software, my printers stopped working entirely. I blamed the new software and tried innumerable ways to fix the issue to no avail. What it turned out to be was a couple of orphaned files in their print spooler folder. I stopped the spooler, deleted the files, restarted the spooler, and all works well. Can you add that item to your software, i.e. check and remove orphaned files in the print spooler folders?

how to change icon size?

Browser privacy issue
Good day, old person here.....
I am using Windows 10, do I need both Google Chrome AND Microsoft Edge? I sometimes receive a message from Auslogics saying I may have a privacy issue and that I should look at my privacy settings... but as there is no indication of what the privacy setting should be or what has changed, I don't know what I am supposed to be checking.
Patience and any help offered would be much appreciated!
Thanks & regards

Windows asks me twice to give permission to use Edge
I use Windows 11 and Edge is my default browser. I love Microsoft Edge but can't understand why every time I start my computer, Windows asks me twice to give permission for it to use Edge, and then later when I go to use Edge it asks me again.
Given that Microsoft has created both the software that runs my computer and also Microsoft Edge, I speculate it should be possible to avoid such an unecessary procedure. Will you please tell me how to do this? Thanks.

How to completely remove pre-installed software?
Hi there,
I downloaded some "pre-installed" software on my computer (i.e., just need to unzip the RAR file and the software will start working; no need to manually run the installation tool). If I no longer need this software, how do I completely uninstall it? I already deleted the "pre-installed" files, but I believe my computer still has some residual memory of it. I did a registry cleanup already...anything else I need to do?
Thanks,
Bearme
