  1. Looking for a Windows 10 image viewer/slideshow with very specific features ...


    First of all, I have used "search" before posting, and seen a lot of recommended photo viewers, but the reviews of the various photo viewers have not mentioned most of the features I'm interested in, specifically. So I thought I'd see if someone here has encountered a viewer that:

    1. Will display the entire contents of a folder in a slideshow (no hand-selection needed)
    2. Will allow the user to control the duration for which individual images are shown (somewhere between 1 second and ten minutes would be fine) in the slideshow
    3. Has an option to display the filename of the image
    4. This not NECESSARY but would be much preferred: has the ability to display a slideshow in a window, i.e., not full screen or on desktop.
    5. have the ability to pause the show at the press of a mouse or a key so I can copy off the filename if need be

    Less important but nice would be the ability to copy the filename with the press of a button (like Imgur offers when you pull up an image from your imgur collection).

    Also nice would be the same program with the same functions on Android (but this is hardly essential).

    Don't care at all about image editing options: I have GIMP and I know how to use it.

    Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

  3. Windows 10 image viewer wont stop playing as a slideshow

    So for some reason when I go to click on a picture in my pictures on windows 10 it wont show the picture I clicked on as a still image, instead it flashes through all my pictures in the folder as a slideshow. This happens for every picture I click on. I
    don't know why all of a sudden it started doing this, I had made no changes to my computer and I certainly never turned on slideshow. I've tried everything but the slideshow wont turn off. Any suggestions?

    Note, i'm not sure if this is even a slideshow or whether it's bugged. Slideshow usually appears in fullscreen but this is not appearing full screen for me, it appears on normal size image viewer and the photos flash quite fast not slow like regular slideshow.
    When I click on slideshow this thing does not turn off.

    Windows 10 Photo Viewer slideshow

    Windows 10 Photo Viewer slideshow displays the pictures full size, not full screen, hence they are cropped if bigger than the display.

    Hence I cannot use Slideshow as I did in Win 8.

    Looks like a glitch to me, or is there a setting for Windows 10 Viewer?
