sharing photos from gallery collection on 950xl

the problem i have is, when i use the photo gallery to share, the photo goes off and then comes back. it will not take me to the apps like whatsapp, Facebook or instagram section to share. i have to open the app & share the photo from there. it all used to work fine. checked my dads 950 and his works fine. just installed the 10.0.10586.494 and thats not fixed it. any ideas.

soft reset doesn't fix the issue? And have you received the new firmware update?

carried out soft reset loads of times. even removed battery. it seemed to start from last OS update but not 100% sure of that. i can upload if i do it direct from the apps. just seen today its any type of sharing from the sharing icon. not just galley.

maybe wait for the next update for OS or the photos app - or do a factory reset which will wipe out all data unless you do a backup
