    My images open in Photoshop by default. I want to change that to a simpler image viewer. Any suggestions?

    You can also check on the settings if Irfanview is available.

    • Press Windows key+ I
    • Click System
    • Select Default apps
    • Then click Photo viewer
    • You can also check on Choose default apps by the file type
    • Check if Irfanview is on the list

    Please let us know how it goes for us to assist you further.
