I think it would be better to use the free program Irfanview to rotate your images. This will save your image file in its rotated aspect onto your computer disk. I suspect Photoshop Elements is just tweaking the EXIF tags in the images.
There are "internal" signals within images (JPG, others) that tell a viewer how to rotate without altering the the on-disk file itself. This is what is meant by EXIF tags. The EXIF (exchangeable image file format) standard specifies a set of tags that can be embedded in images (among other things). One of these tags specifies the orientation of the photo, and has 8 possible values which cover every possible combination of rotation and mirroring of an image. This enables you to take a picture with your camera sideways or upside-down (or even inside-out), and stand a reasonable chance of having it display properly on your computer. I.L.

From where I correct the photo and save it to my Album "Genealogy Photos". I then go into Legacy and upload the photo to the name of the person who the photo relates to, but when it appears, it is on it's side again, I rotate the photo until it is correct and then "Save As". All is well until I "Close" the file containing the Photo when it falls over on it's side again. Please, what am I doing or not doing?
