Despite the positive features of Windows 10, errors like “Oops! We couldn’t save that one” increases people’s anger and frustration. But no need to panic if you encounter this error when saving or editing photos with the Windows Photo app.
Typically “Oops! We couldn’t save that one” error that occurs when a PC owner clicks on the Win button, selects photos, selects a photo and clicks Edit. These steps are followed by an Oops…… or “Can’t Edit. We are having trouble opening this file for editing.”
There are several things you can do to fix Oops! We couldn’t avoid this mistake, and we offer the most common solutions below, so make sure you try it.
Converting the image to JPG (or PNG) with Paint
Some users concerned reported that they had successfully solved the problem by converting the Paint file to another image format. Since the problem occurs mainly with.PNG files, converting the file to JPG format with Paint should allow you to bypass the error message.
If you see this error with many different images, it is probably because you are dealing with a lot of incorrect EXIF (Exchangeable Image File Format) data. This data contains tons of information about your camera, where the image was taken (GPS coordinates) and many other metadata such as date, time, copyright and much more.
Resetting the photo application
Some affected users have managed to solve the problem by resetting the Photos application. It turns out that this utility has the potential to be corrupted and cause the error “Oops! we couldn’t save this one” during the backup sequence.
