Problem to Solve

When using the feature "Open the image with...", we can specify the path of the app to use. However, this way, it is not possible to use the default Windows Photos app to open the image, which is more pratical in that case than Paint for example.

New Feature/Solution

To open a specific image with Windows Photos app, we need to execute the following command to open the image with the default software:

start <image>

We can launch the app with the commande start ms-photos: but it is no longer working to specify the URI of an image to open.
