In Onedrive how do you change the view back to see all pics in the entire gallery.

Hi Leonard,

Thanks for reaching out. I understand how frustrating it can be when OneDrive keeps showing the “Add album” screen instead of your full photo gallery. I'm here to help!

First, go to the Photos section in OneDrive online. At the top right, you’ll see an option called “Show folders from” switch that to All folders. This ensures every photo across your OneDrive account appears in the gallery view.

Second, check the view mode. In the toolbar, select Tiles view instead of List or Compact List. Tiles give you a proper gallery look with larger thumbnails.

Third, if OneDrive keeps defaulting to the album screen, a simple workaround is to bookmark the URL when you’re in Photos → All folders. Using that bookmark will take you straight to the full gallery and bypass the album prompt.

Last, if you want to keep your gallery clean, you can filter by folder using the same Show folders from dropdown or move non-photo files out of your Pictures folder. This helps avoid clutter from unrelated images.

I hope you find this information helpful. Please let me know if you have any further questions If the answer is helpful, please click "Accept Answer".

Regards,

Carlo

Hi Leonard,

Some users have reported missing view controls in Microsoft Edge, while they appear correctly in browsers like Firefox or Chrome. Clearing cache or updating Edge often resolves this.
