    Photo Viewer Can't Display...Not Enough Memory...For ONE Photo ONLY


    [I have Windows 10 Pro 21H1 build 19043.1052] The message "Windows Photo Viewer can't display this picture ... not enough memory ..." has been discussed here before. What's unique about my situation (I think) is that I see this message for only one photo on my computer. It's a JPG. Photo Viewer has no problem with other JPGs and JPEGs and PNGs stored on my computer. (I haven't tested every one, but I have tested dozens.) It's only this one JPG that it will not display. I am aware of the well-known solution to this issue that involves the Windows Color Management profiles. That solution doesn't work for me because Color Management is already configured exactly as that solution wants it to be configured. Besides, this problem only affects a single JPG. I tried this experiment: I opened the file in Windows Paint and Save As-ed in several different formats. Windows Photo Viewer wouldn't open the JPEG, PNG and TIF versions of the photo, but it did open the BMP version. From the above experiment, it seems that the problem is in the original JPG and not Windows Photo Viewer. The photo was taken on a Google Pixel (Android) but so have other photos that Photo Viewer opens successfully. What might it be about this one photo that stops Windows Photo Viewer from opening it?

    Replacement for photo viewer

    I just use the Photos app for a quick view, otherwise I use Adobe Lightroom to view and edit photos.

    Replacement for photo viewer

    Win ver 19041.388

    Just do not like this "new" photo viewer, it is just cumbersome to operate, lot of extra steps etc. I like the older Win photo viewer, however since JPG files are saved as "unhandled Extension handler finder", *Confused I need something else. Appreciate any suggestions that is not overly optioned, just a simple viewer. Tx

    Hi,

    There are several reasons why this issue occurs, such as corrupted system file or your graphic driver needs to be updated. To isolate your issues about viewing photos in
    Windows Photo Viewer, we just have a few questions:

    • Is the issue the same with a different image file format?
    • Have you tried using the Photo app to check if the issue is the same?
    • Is the issue only occurs with the photos that were captured using your DSLR camera?
    • Have you tried downloading photos online and check if the issue is the same?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

    In the meantime, to troubleshoot your issue in using the Windows Photo Viewer, we suggest that you run the Windows apps troubleshooter. To do so, click on this
    link. If the issue still persists, we recommend that you update your graphic driver. To do this, we suggest that you follow the steps provided on this
    link.

    Please post back with the result for further assistance.
