Thank you every one for your support. I was thinking this was going to be an easy fix because I was missing something that I used to do but had forgotten. It never occurred to me that it my be a Systems Error versus a User Error. :-) I will be looking into the various tools suggested to see...

In Windows 10, I customized my primary folders where I kept my photos in Windows Explorer. I have not been able to do that in Windows 11. Below are the steps that I’ve taken after I’ve set up the folder the way I want it. That is, after I’ve clicked the boxes to show columns in Windows Explorer...
