    Three methods:

    1- [Best method] Use whatever feature your photo editing software provides to enter a description. (Microsoft Photos displays photos - it does not edit them.)

    2- [Alternate method] Open the image file's Properties sheet and enter a Subject.

    To do this: Right-click on the image file > choose Properties > select the Details tab

    3- [Alternate method] Create a Notepad file that includes the name of the image file and a description of the photo. You can conveniently organize all the photos in a folder with this method.

    Hello,

    Could you please clarify what you mean by “description”? Are you referring to a description or caption that you have added to a photo in the Microsoft Photos app?

    Do you see a “Save Options” option in the Microsoft Photos app while editing the photo, as shown in the screenshot?
