Photos opening not full size

[jrodd09]

Hi everyone. I transferred a bunch of photos from my computer to SkyDrive and then onto my SD card on my surface 2. Now whenever I click on a photo most of them aren't opening in full size but a very small size (think a bit larger than thumbnails). Does anyone know why this is happening? Is there a fix to this? I would obviously want all photos shown in full original size.

Thanks

Go to file explorer and see how big the files are? are they the same size as before you moved the to SkyDrive and SD card? that would be the first place I look

I'm not sure what the solution is, but it sounds like you somehow copied the SkyDrive placeholder images which the system downloads when first opening a picture on SkyDrive. When you view a folder of images, it just shows the placeholders. Once you view the pictures individually, the system pulls down the full-size image. It's supposed to work in such a way that any file manipulation (including copying) ONLY happens with the full-size image, so I don't know what to do other than trying to copy again. When I've copied large quantities of files from SkyDrive, there's a huge pause while the system pulls down the full-size files, then it copies those to the destination.
