It sounds like you have accidentally removed some essential apps and components from your system. Don't worry, I will try to help you restore them. - Method 1: Use the Settings app to reset the Microsoft Store app. This will also reinstall the app and fix any issues with it. - On Windows 10, navigate to Settings app > Apps > Apps & features.

Windows 10 keeps sporadically changing my default apps after I have set them. For example, I set PDFs to default with Acrobat and MOVs to default with Win Media Player. Randomly I receive a popup alert in the bottom of my screen from Windows, notifying me that Windows has changed my default app; PDFs revert to default with Edge, MOVs revert to default with Photo.

I can access default settings/apps. The photo in my original post is from default apps, but there are so many"Photos" to press, whereas I should be able to press something once -- as I've done it before -- and my Microsoft Office should then be set as a default for opening all my photos. I can't press any links here, but I appreciate your offer.
