Windows 11: Remove Gallery from File Explorer (check for updates)
In Windows 11, you can remove the Gallery page from File Explorer. In this guide, I will show you the steps to complete this configuration.
Gallery is a new page that Microsoft introduced in File Explorer as part of the Windows 11 23H2 release. It offers an identical view to the one in the Photos app. The page displays images in larger thumbnails, hides the file name, and uses chronological sorting. It even includes settings for adding and removing folders from the view.
Although it can be a handy experience for many users, in my case, I never use this feature. I am already familiar with the Photos app and when I need to find a specific picture, I just browse the folder directly. If this feature isn't for you either, File Explorer doesn't provide an option to disable the Gallery, but you can use the registry to remove it completely.
