How to Restore Windows Photo Viewer Windows 10

This video shows how to restore the classic photo viewer from Windows 7. It's still there, but kind of hidden. There's an easy registry modification that allows you to switch from the Windows 10 photos to the old Windows Photo Viewer.

Link to the page where I download the registry file:

One of the best instructor. Easy, clear, flowing and straight to the point. Good job.

Brillant, thank you for reminding us of somethying that we all so often forget. Backup anytime you mess with the registry, it takes just a second but can cause hours of frustration if things go wrong and you didn't do it.

Can confirm, still works even today as of Nov. 1, 2024. 👍
Thank you for sharing~

Incredible. This was annoying me for so long. I actually didn't think there was a fix to this issue. I randomly decided to look and your solution was fast and the solution worked. Even some years later. Thank You!!!

Number one instructor i give you a gold medal thanks

[TinyMaths]

Thank you; exactly what I needed.
Recently got a PC from a friend, preloaded with Win 10, and Photo Viewer was missing. Then I remembered there were fixes on YouTube. This did the trick, fast and easy.

[MetalHeart]

seems easy BUT im worried about that system restore thing, can it wipe out everything that is on your computer
and does this / can this work for windows 11 ?

Can't thank you enough to the point tutorial and it worked !

[carlharoe]

tldr it works, at least to my personal pc. i was too reluctant at first when he said "...something could go wrong so you should do some kind of backup" but i go yolo, skip the "create a restore point", merge that reg file and it works fine, just like what's shown on 1:32.

Hello, in the “we can’t sign you into your account right now” video u made a few years ago, with the .bak and other account. I do everything right, but when I restart my computer, the “can’t log in” is still there, and when I go to account lists, the .bak and other account is STILL there. Help!!
