Founded Windows Tweaks as a teenager in 2001, his helpful PC tricks made it Germany's most visited Windows site (at the time Sandro looked like this). He then went on to write for international publications such as PC-Praxis, Computerbild, PCWorld in the USA, IMTEST.de and Hifi.de. Sandro's main job is as Global Product Marketing Lead and Consultant for various global tech companies, including Microsoft, AVG, Avast, Nero, TeamViewer, Swiss IT Security Group and now currently in the fintech sector for Gendigital. But he can't get rid of his passion and shares his tweaks here again. Privately, he enjoys traveling the world and loves Asia, especially Japan, Singapore and Korea, but also natural places like Iceland and the Nordics. You can reach Sandro via e-mail.

  1. Hello,
    I have the following problem:
    When I go to File in the photo gallery and then to Options, a tab opens with General and Import.
    However, when I go to import, the card is empty, so I cannot make any settings - e.g. storage location of the images.
    What can I do?

    Thanks for help
    Greetings
    Claudia

  2. Hello Claudia,

    This is a known "problem": The import wizard remembers if it has already copied images (at an earlier point in time). It then indicates that there is nothing more to import!

    But you should be able to access it via "Computer" - i.e. Windows Explorer - and move the images manually?

    Does that work?

    Best regards,
    Sandro Villinger
