Do I Need to Change a Setting, or What?

wismiss — Mon, 06 Jul 2020 03:41:13 GMT

I had to buy a new computer, an HP Envy, because I had Windows 7 and the hard drive was going out on my old computer. I didn't think the upgrade and cost to fix was worth the money on an older computer.

However, I do NOT like this Office 365 and am working around it and getting used to it. But, I cannot figure this problem out. When I go to Google and click on images, put the image I want, I don't get images-----I get a whole bunch of web sites to go to. This never happened on my older computer.

Any ideas what I need to do? Thanks in advance for any suggestions you could give me.

So, when you click on images, you don't get pictures at all? Just a list of websites, the same as All?

Try using a different search engine. Microsoft's "Bing" is a good one. DuckDuckGo is another to see if Image works.

Can you see photos elsewhere on the internet? If not, it might be a problem with your graphics card or the one put in your computer needs updated even though your computer is new. If you don't know how to update, do a search for it. Make sure instructions are for Windows 10.

Most likely you have a warranty and free tech support for a year or so on your software and hardware. If you can't solve the problem, call to see if they can help you.

That happened to me once and I noticed at the top, there was a choice of images or lists. Do you have that option?

When Google displays images, they show you the site where the image is located. That's normal. Here's what I see for an image search for QVC.

I would see what you could try doing under the Settings section.

That's where you should be able to adjust your settings for the page.
