Even using a new Windows 10 install with standard JPEG images, I will often see a blank rather than the image and in a supposed photo viewer, that’s just not good enough. I also have an issue with Photos in that it loads the image files but won’t always display the images. While it’s still a photo viewer, it might be nice to be able to quickly crop or resize while you have the image open. Sometimes it can take a while to load and it doesn’t have many features. While Photos works okay, it is a poor replacement for the earlier Photo Viewer app. That’s why I have put together this list of the best photo viewers for Windows 10.
There are always options and often much better ones that the default apps bundled with your operating system.
Windows 10 comes with the Photos app built in but that doesn’t mean you have to use it.
