If you’re like me, you prefer to have your photo’s organized in folders from the date they were taken. Well, the default photo import tool is limited on options and only allows the importing to one folder. If you prefer the old way of doing things, I found this tip on the Microsoft forums.

“You can get the “old” functionality back by creating a shortcut:

1. right-click desktop, “new shortcut”
2. paste the following in as the location:
%SystemRoot%\system32\rundll32.exe “%SystemDrive%\Program Files\Windows Photo Viewer\photoAcq.dll”,PhotoAndVideoAcquire
3. hit next and type a name – e.g. photo import wizard
4. hit finish”
