How to Open HEIC Files in Windows 11/10 for Free Officially

In this video, you will learn how to open HEIF Image files in Windows 11 & Windows 10 using an extension provided by Microsoft for free.

For more information and a link to download the extension, check this blog post:

Play High-Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) videos in any video app on your Windows 10 device. These extensions are designed to take advantage of hardware capabilities on some newer devices— including those with an Intel 7th Generation Core processor and newer GPU to support 4K and Ultra HD content. For devices that don’t have hardware support for HEVC videos, software support is provided, but the playback experience might vary based on the video resolution and PC performance. These extensions also let you encode HEVC content on devices that don’t have a hardware-based video encoder.

Misleading. There is no direct link posted. The link would lead to another link to another link. So frustrating...🤨

I don't see the full URL to go directly to the manufacturer of the extension. How can I get the extension as you show in your video? Thanks.

I had no idea heif files existed until today, thank you for providing this info! Crazy that it's 2023 and paying for codecs is still a thing...guess I shouldn't be surprised 🙄

Unfortunately, it's not working on my desktop. It's showing up as "this app will not work on your device". Any idea how to solve this issue?

[manoranjanpanigrahi]

[aerocanard]

Don't think this link is available anymore. Can't find it. If someone has a link directly to this app, can they post it, please?

[obulreddyofficial]

[davidwright]

When you pay for the extension it still does not work. Looks like we have to stop using apple devices to take photos

[lianhua]

This app is not available in the microsoft store Please share a new way to install this officially free .

[swananddongare]

This will not work anymore it shows this app will not work on your device

[youtubemakesmedothis]

The link now goes to the Microsoft store, which charged me $1.29 CAD + GST for the codec, so it's not free.

It's 2024, the link you gave for downloading the app is not working anymore, It shows "This app will not work on your device"
