Windows 10: Windows 10 Old Photo Viewer .EXE location

Ive installed the old photo viewer from Win7 and it works fine but I got files I cant select it as "open with" even tho I know they can be opened with it. So I need to find the .exe file to select it from the menu but I dont really remember where it got installed or how to find it. Can someone help me?

Where is MS Photo viewer exe located

Sorry this is a bone head question but I am at wits end and googling the questions did not help.

I have a brand new windows 10 computer. One of my programs wants to to know how to handle/display jpg's. Everyone suggests to me that MS Photo Viewer program included free with windows 10 is the way to go. I am not even sure what I was using in Windows
7. So when my program asks how I want to handle JPG's I browse to:

c: programs\windows photo viewer\

In this directory and one sub directory the only one exe file that can be seen imagingdevices.exe. Click on that and it starts to add/configure your imaging scanner. When I scanned the computer for photo*.exe My computer found only one file and it was not
it. I opened a jpg file in explorer by double clicking on it and the photo opened and in the upper left corner of the pane it says "photo -<name of photo>" ut I could not find any "properties" option/pull down so I could trace this back to the programs source.
I have wasted 2 hours trying to do this simple task that I have done hundreds of times before. It should not be this difficult!

Back up plan abandon MS Window recommendation and find a good viewer on the net and install. Recomendations.

 

How to get rid of raw file support in windows photo viewer?




I have downloaded this, and it did not work; photo viewer is not in the list of programs in Open With or Default App. I used option 2 step 3, followed by step 5 to 9.
