Is that what you are asking for?

silvercleave Posted January 26, 2023 Author Share Posted January 26, 2023 Thanks for the answer but then why do I have all 3 icons for all 3 progs on my screen? or do I open all saved files in publisher and switch to photo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 You can use whichever app you want. Open Photo if you want to work there with all its functions. Or open Designer if you want to work there with all its functions. Or open Publisher if you want its functions, which will include most of the main functions of Photo and Designer.
