General Software Discussion / Re: Picasa to be 'phased out'

But if that's something you weren't aware of, it can definitely be alarming to discover GB of photos you didn't know existed.-Deozaan (May 07, 2016, 10:49 AM)
Yes, I'm glad that I found all these family photos that I didn't know existed, and that I have access to the originals of modified photos.
But Picasa putting these in hidden folders is a double-edged sword. The folders I'm working on come from a family member's computer which I no longer have access to, and neither do I have Picasa installed on my computer. So I could have easily missed these.
I would have preferred if these originals were in a visible folder, so I know what I'm dealing with...
