WINDOWS 11 has a Built-in Photo Application that I use all the time!
It is basic, but utilities have been added to it. It has an optimizer hidden within the Filter system and a new spotting tool that works better than it should.
Give it a try, then try It again later!

I assume you don't know that writing in all caps is considered shouting, and is against the rules of this site.

Open Photos, go to the gear at the top & click.
One statement on the screen says that "Photos Legacy" (old version) is available for free at the Microsoft Store.
Does that help???

If may be easier FOR YOU to type in all caps, but you're being offensive to the entire UHH community. You're asking for help. No reason to be offensive to your audience. You've been a member since 2011. You know better.

Why not just keep with Elements? Once you have your pics in Elements, as an organizer, you're set. Maybe upgrade to the newer version of elements? BTW, I could care less if you type in all caps. I can figure out that you are not yelling at us. But the rules do say to avoid this. 20 page diatribes and personal insults over raw vs. jpeg are allowed, but not all caps. Go figure

You're in all lower case of you don't want to use the shift key to capitalize the first letter.

All caps is not easier, of your eye sight is pure, increase your font size.

That is true. I take it he is upset and trying to get our attention for help.

North West Bob is asking for help in editing photos, not critique in caps vs small letters. He has gotten help, the purpose of UHH.

Sorry, but all caps are easier for my old eyes to read because the individual characters are large. Linking CAPs and being offended is a state of mind. All caps perhaps makes one read phonically vs look say, phonics is not American, it is by "those other people" with toasted skin. Predigest is influential in many ways. Times Roman [?] is the normal print, but there are hundreds of fonts.

The subject of all caps is a good topic for General or Attic. Harvard goes along with the Gallaudet University reading by word shape, Look-Say method of reading, in which a vocabulary of 1500 words are recognized by shape. A tragic method often revisited and used by changing the name... a failure by any name. Each word is a symbol vs letters. Of course, A B C is what is taught in USA vs Phonics that actually is useful in sounding out words.

I use the same two apps that Frank mentioned, and both work well.
