Again, this is just a WAG, but I suspect that Windows 10 didn't have a defined default "process this file extension with this application" link in the registry even though Paint was coming to the rescue, probably as a default fallback app for any graphics file.

But, when I use the shellexecute process it does not

So what exactly is shellexecute?

Defaulting the system to use Photo instead of Paint has solved the

I would try changing the default application for that file type extension

a little different.

Just a WAG.

I had a client just a week ago who began having trouble with JPG files
after their computer was upgraded to Win10 Pro. Changing the file

to JPEG made their email program begin working again.

Again, just curious what might happen in your case.
