I have no idea how or why Windows Live Photo Gallery appears in my system. I just want my photos to go to folder on my computer and not to this  Gallery. If I delete an image from Windows Live Photo Gallery will it be deleted elsewhere in my system? How do I delete this Gallery from my system?

All the info online about this Gallery is full of jargon, very hard to decipher, non-informative. It appears to be a device to automatically ship all my info and activities to Facebook which is not a goal of mine.

Thanks.
