Microsoft Photos app preview
Hello,
I want to add a preview of Microsoft Photos and it writes to me...
Sorry we couldn't add you to the photos preview program
How to fix this error?
Thanks

I checked on my pc and it happens to me too
Likely a glitch in this version, be patient.

IDeleted I also get this, and have been getting that exact error for well over 8 or 9 months. I fear it may be on perma-break!
- STRK9Copper ContributorNo glitch; it is just Microsoft being Microsoft. Didn't work for me either,
- Aditya_MohapatraBrass ContributorPlease fix this Microsoft it's been so long. I hope there's no limit to the number of people that can join the Photos Preview Program, if so, break that limit or just remove the useless button to avoid confusion because the error message "Sorry, we couldn't add you to the Photos preview program" doesn't really explain anything.

Hello Deleted,
Try to reset Photos app and see if it helps:
- Open Settings.
- Go to System > Apps & features.
- Locate Photos app and click on Advanced options.
- Click the Reset button.
Hope this helps!

This could be a bug of your Insider Preview version and should be addressed by Feedback Hub.
Could you please produce a screenshot of this error message?
- DeletedHello! Such a stable application as Microsoft Photos can not be judged based on a few errors that often result from the wrong synchronisation of the browser with the user's Microsoft account! So extensive in additional features the application deserves very good reviews! It's easy to use and works perfectly with OneDrive and other Microsoft products. I do not have any problems with its operation on many computers!

Deleted I will try nonetheless

Hi, If you live in a restricted country like Iran (Microsoft sanctions), it will cause this problem.
To solve this, you can change your IP address. - RamenNoodelCopper Contributor
I've also been getting the same error. I just updated to the Windows 11 dev build but I don't think that has anything to do with it.
