    Brink, I found the tutorial that enabled me to restore the Windows Photo Viewer to Windows 10. I had been fond of it in previous versions of Windows and feel that it does a better job as a viewer and a print program when compared to the program that is native to Windows 10. Thank you so very much for this tutorial. Success!!! Again, thank you.

  5. Hello Brink, thanks for another solution!

    Although I have this strange behaviour:
    Now in my options default Apps, I have 2 Windows Photo Viewer entries, 1 with the right icon the other without icon (see picture):

    The .reg file below will clean that up for you. The tutorial has been updated to include this as well now.

    Hey mate, *Smile

    I'm not sure what you mean by the images being a bit vague. Could you provide more details about what you needed help with?

    I been there a few times. *Wink

    Basically, you would just need to do step 2, steps 4-7 to merge the .reg file, then do step 8 to set Windows Photo Viewer as the default program. The link in step 8 will show you more details for that.

    Please let me know what you need anything more specific for.
