I got this working via File Explorer to send a copy of an image to a

But there is no "Send To" when I am surfing thru images in "Photo" or
"Photo Viewer".

Can this be inserted, or is there some other way?



Firstly create a shortcut for the folder.
New/shortcut - on desktop.
In the target box put the address, something like this;
C:\Users\Ed\Pictures\ZMiscellany\2020

Next hit WinKey+R, and enter;
"Shell:sendto" without quotes. Hit OK, and drop the shortcut in with the
rest.

Also the technique for any editing, or removal, of existing Send-to
shortcuts.

Good luck.

Thank you, I have made a folder in the SendTo folder and I can work
this OK from File Explorer.

But I can't access it from the 'Windows Photo Viewer' nor 'Photo' full
screen to send or copy to that SendTo folder.

I can 'Make a Copy' to any specified folder from the viewers above
from the File Menu at the top left of the screen from the viewers, but
annoyingly I have to select the destination folder every time I copy
an image; that folder cannot be made a short-term default. Still,
it's better than nothing.
