ON1 is free to try
The costs is about the same as Elements22
Outstanding No Noise
Outstanding Resize( plus a updated version will here next month)
AI (Artificial intelligence) for editing, removing noise/ grain, Resize for printing
You can post process in a few seconds. I think faster than you could do with Elements 22

Then As you gain knowledge of ON1, there are many presets to help you change the look.
Like replace the Sky
AI for editing
Maybe crop you image
Then done

It can be that simple with ON1 ( Sure you will need to setup the way want to save and where, understand a few simple directions of selecting where your pictures are located.
After that you can watch YouTube videos about ON1 enhancements to grow your photo results.
Give it a try, like did

Oh before I forget " make sure your computer has the speed to process Any editing program you select". ON1 wants lots of RAM, 1-2 GB video card( more the better and faster the processing) Look at the minimum requirements of each a editing software before committing.

I also know the author and also trust him with the next chapter. It's great knowing how it will end or should I say begin over.

Ditto on recommending Luminar Neo - very powerful and easy to learn and use. I think they offer a free trial.

For simple edits, something just to get started, I would suggest Irfanview. Free. It does crops, lighten/darken, sharpen, saturation, lots of things for simple edits. I would NEVER be without it even though I have several other editing programs. If you make it your default editor, every picture you open is already in it so you may edit or not. You don't have to open the program and insert a photo.
best wishes with whatever you choose.

Forgive me for being caustic, but does anybody read? Pattilu, in the first post wrote, "I’m a newbie ..........and looking for “photo editing software for dummies.” Later Pattilu wrote that the computer uses windows.

UHH recommendations have been to try Affinity, Gimp 2, Luminar, Luminar AI, try harder with Lightroom, Smart Photo Editor, PT Photo Edit, Paint Shop Pro, Photoshop Elements, Faststone Image Viewer, Irfanview, Photoscape X and Photoshop.

Pattilu's computer in use has Windows. It has "Photos". It opens the image file and has all the usual adjustments. Why do we all list what we've spent years learning and loving?

For the record, I use three versions of Lightroom, Photoshop, some Topaz stuff, Photoshop Elements, Premiere Elements, Premiere Pro, a little DaVinci Resolve and a little After Effects. I love them all. Pattilu has asked for a place for "dummies" to start.

The most basic and begging point on a Windows computer is Microsoft's included version of "Photos". Look at the easy to use sliders! Perfect place to start!

Thanks. It's a pleasure to see an answer to a question . I happen to agree with you as to a choice of easy to use basic editing tools. Almost all editors have the most commonly needed functions. Until a person gets comfortable with global edits, none of the more local edits will be confortable to use. ie:kiss
