Windows Photo Viewer (formerly Windows Picture and Fax Viewer)[1] is an image viewer included with the Windows NT family of operating systems. It was first included with Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 under its former name. It was temporarily replaced with Windows Photo Gallery in Windows Vista,[2] but was reinstated in Windows 7.[3] This program succeeds Imaging for Windows. In Windows 10, it is deprecated in favor of a Universal Windows Platform app called Photos, although it can be brought back with a registry tweak.[4]

Some devices and Android phones are able to take photos and screenshots and have a custom ICC Profile being applied to said pictures, however Windows Photo Viewer will render an error when trying to display the picture with an "Windows Photo Viewer can't display this picture because there might not be enough memory available on your computer." exception when an unknown ICC Profile is detected. A patch is available on GitHub that fixes this behavior.[17]


Ok first, I would like to use windows photo viewer. I know of the other options. I just bought a new dell computer and discovered (like many others) that windows photo viewer had issues. I have scoured the internet with no final solution. I did get windows photo viewer on the new computer and can view almost any format of photo, other than DNG. Now here is the weird part. If I put one of the files that you can set the default to windows photo viewer in the folder with DNGs I can thumb through the DNGs. Without a JPEG or TIFF (for example) photo viewer is not an option. SO while I have a work around I feel like I am so close. Maybe its stubbornness but I would like to open a DNG through default with windows photo viewer. Its just super weird that if I put a JPEG in the folder with DNGs I am able to view all the DNGs.


I just feel like this is something easily fixed. Most of the other forums discussions I have found have not helped. Being able to view them indirectly through windows photo viewer is a start, but again I have to have a jpeg in the folder.


Thanks for the response. I just don't like photos. The photos come up kind of blurry on the preview. Windows photo explorer is an old app. I have it on the cpu now but just can't get the dng files to open.


after some google search i bump into -> -classic-windows-photo-viewer-in-server-2016/ which works well except group policy is on computer level and might not work for everyone and most importantly hinders further customization.






so after further google search and come across -> -rankin.com/articles/per-user-ftas-file-type-associations-in-windows-10-server-2012-r2-and-server-2016-the-final-word/ and followed the Citrix WEM section on how to setup New FTA, get ProgId, Target Application and Command.


If you upgrade a PC running Windows 7 or 8.1 to Windows 10, Windows Photo Viewer will be available, and you can set it as your default photo viewer if you want. However, if you perform a clean installation of Windows 10 --- or buy a PC with Windows 10 already on it --- you can't access Photo Viewer at all. The interesting thing is that Photo Viewer is still there. It's just hidden, and you'll have to make a couple of Registry edits to have it show up. After you do that, you can then set it as your default photo viewer.


Windows Photo Viewer will now be the default image viewer for that type of image file. You'll need to repeat this process for each type of image file you want to use it with. In other words, whenever you open an image that opens in the Photos app, just close the Photos app and use the "Open with" menu to associate that file type with Windows Photo Viewer. You'll only have to do this the first time you open each new type of image file.


FastStone is a very good FREE image viewer and basic image editor program. If you turn on the color management using the Settings>Settings>CMS>Enable Color Management System command then most images that have an embedded color profile will display correctly.


For non-photographers it doesn't matter and FastStone / IrfanView / XnView, etc. are sufficient for their needs but I'm really surprised that photographers who calibrate and profile their displays keep saying that those viewers are properly colour-managed -- they are not. It is better to use the basic Windows viewer (not the metro app) or Picasa, which display images correctly if you set your system right, or something like FastPicture Viewer (a commercial product), which is what I would suggest to any photographer.


I can't comment on using a wide gamut monitor but with a normal (sRGB) monitor if you are telling windows to change the monitor profile instead of letting the color calibration software take care of that then yes, you are probably correct.


What you are seeing is the Spyder loader telling the Windows CMS about the calibration curves. But this doesn't have to be picked up by an individual program. PS, LR, most other raw converters I've tried and well-written photo viewers know that they need to translate your photo colours through the monitor profile. To quote from the dispcalGUI site:


Lomography's LomoChrome '92 is designed to mimic the look of classic drugstore film that used to fill family photo albums. As we discovered, to shoot with it is to embrace the unexpected, from strange color shifts to odd textures and oversized grain.


The LowePro PhotoSport Outdoor is a camera pack for photographers who also need a well-designed daypack for hiking and other outdoor use. If that sounds like you, the PhotoSport Outdoor may be a great choice, but as with any hybrid product, there are a few tradeoffs.


If you want a compact camera that produces great quality photos without the hassle of changing lenses, there are plenty of choices available for every budget. Read on to find out which portable enthusiast compacts are our favorites.


Is there some type of add-on or file I need to install to view such new tiffs now? Am I doing something inherently wrong when exporting? I checked and I can still view georef tiffs created from older versions of ArcMap just fine in photoviewer.


But when I am georeferencing a new image and want to rectify to .tiff, I can't see any options for choosing the pixel depth (8 bit or 16 bit)...is 16 bit mandatory? I would like it to be 8 so I could view them in image viewers without having to re-export.


I have trouble w/ TIF images that open up differently in FIJI/ImageJ and other image viewers like (windows photo viewer or even MATLAB). The image looks darker in FIJI/ImageJ, but the viewers show the correct image.


When I open the pic with Windows photos viewer and try to print from there, by clicking the print, the print job always stuck in the print queue and cannot cancel or remove. all print jobs behind this will stop.


The problem is when I click a picture in a folder, the Windows Photo viewer is used - which is what I want....

But then I cannot use the keys or arrows to view the next picture in the folder.

I have to close the Photo app and then open the next picture to view it.

I want to achieve the same effect as Windows File Explorer where I can open a picture and then continue to view the rest in the folder by using my arrow keys or clicking the arrows on the Photo app.

Please tell me how I can do this.


If you want to use the old Vista photo viewer in Opus, you can do that by setting it as the default image viewer, or adding overrides for specific types if you don't want it to be the default for everything.


Diverting you to the Vista app doesn't make sense in Opus, since Opus defaults to using its own image viewer (where next/prev works fine, however you launch it). If you're using the Windows 10 app in Opus, it's because you've explicitly asked for it, so we need to respect that choice, even if we disagree to it due to the Windows 10 app being garbage.


Long story short: I don't think we can make next/prev work in the Windows 10 Photos app. Microsoft could fix it by fixing their code. Or you could fix it by using a different/better image viewer (also the conclusion in the TC threads I linked, unless something's changed very recently but they still launch the Vista app by default for some reason).


Though Windows Photo Viewer was the default photo app on Windows 7 and 8, Microsoft replaced it with its Universal Windows Platform app simply called Microsoft Photos, which is what you're likely using if you're currently running Windows 10. If you're anything like us, you may find that Windows Photo Viewer is not only faster but that it makes it easier to view the photos you have stored in the local drives.


Please provide us with information about the photo that isn't working. The actual photo would be best but at least the format, file extension, etc. There are many different image formats and Windows doesn't support them all. For example JPEG actually has several different formats even for the standard .jpg extension. The iPhone uses the HEIF format which Windows doesn't support. You have to download an app store extension for it and even then the free version is only available for OEMs because of licensing. It is really complex.


One photo in question is a Pixel 5 screenshot. I've downloaded it from Google Photos to my laptop. Before I closed photos.google.com, I took a Printscreen screenshot on the laptop of that same image. The two are attached.


Have you ever tried taking pictures of the moon? If you have, now's your chance to show us your incredible skills! If you haven't, now's the time to get ready to make some great memories! Moon photography might seem easy because the moon is something we can go outside...
