It supports multi-monitor configuration which would come in handy if you work with a large number of images.

You double click an image and it takes its own sweet time to load.

Plus, it can only handle JPEGs and RAW images, but it has no clue whats a PSD.

Having said that, it does have few editing tools which work great but its seldom preferred anyway.

All in all, there are much better alternatives out there that just trump Microsoft Photos.

So, here goes my list for the best photo viewer for Windows 10.

To do that on Windows 10, head over to the search bar and type Default.

Now you can select any Photo viewer as your default image viewer.

Formerly, it was known as Windows Picture and Fax Viewer and later renamed to Windows Photo Viewer.

Coming to Windows 10, Microsoft universally replaced it with its updated version Photos.

I wouldnt recommend manually editing them and hence you should download the.reg files app.

If you have installed Windows 10 from scratch, you need to follow these steps to activate it.

And if you wish to deactivate it, just run the Deactivate Windows Photo Viewer on Windows 10 file and restart your system.

Its almost similar to Windows Photos Viewer in functionality and features, however, it supports a couple of extra image formats like PNG, GIF, etc.

Editing can be done by attaching a link to either Photoshop or Paint.

But what really stands out is the modern UI of the tool compared to other photo view apps.

Something so simple and useful but still lacking in Windows Photo.

You can link different image editors to different file formats.

So every time I choose to edit a PSD, it will open in Photoshop only.

Apart from that, you can also color correct pictures, add watermarks and a few different filters.

It has a slideshow option with many attractive transition effects.
