Evolution Ĭompared to Windows Picture and Fax Viewer, changes have been made to the graphical user interface in Windows Photo Viewer.

Windows Photo Viewer supports images in BMP, JPEG, JPEG XR (formerly HD Photo), PNG, ICO, GIF and TIFF file formats. Windows Photo Viewer can show individual pictures, display all pictures in a folder as a slide show, reorient them in 90° increments, print them either directly or via an online print service, send them in e-mail or burn them to a disc. In Windows 10, it is deprecated in favor of a Universal Windows Platform app called Photos, although it can be brought back with a registry tweak. This program succeeds Imaging for Windows. It was temporarily replaced with Windows Photo Gallery in Windows Vista, but was reinstated in Windows 7. It was first included with Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 under its former name.

Windows Photo Viewer (formerly Windows Picture and Fax Viewer) is an image viewer included with the Windows NT family of operating systems.
