Win10 official version how to restore the picture to restore the default photo viewer? Presumably everyone has upgraded the system on their computer to Win10 system. One of the most inconvenient places in the Win10 system is that the image is opened in a new application. If you want to restore the traditional photo viewer, what should you do? Users who install Win10 will generally encounter this problem, but from Win7/Users who upgraded the old version of Win8/Win8.1 to the official version of Windows 10 will not encounter it.
1, first of all, we need to use the registry editor to open the Win10 system photo viewer function, because in fact this feature is hidden, then press the Windows logo button + R button to open the run command window, Enter the “regedit” command.
2, after opening the registry editor, we double-click the directory on the left, and then open the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoft directory, as shown below.
3, in Microsoft directories, we need to find Windows Photo ViewerCapabilitiesFileAssociations directory entry, until you see a series of key files in the subdirectory.
4, in FileAssociations directory, against which we interface right click, select & ldquo; New - String Value & rdquo; menu, as shown below.
5, the next step is the more critical steps, if you want to open .jpg "text-align:center">
6, then, if you want to use Windows Photo Viewer to view The .png suffix file, the numeric name is written as .png, and the numeric data is still PhotoViewer.FileAssoc.Tiff. In other words, as long as you want to change the way image files are opened in any format, the numeric name is the .format name, and the numeric data is always PhotoViewer.FileAssoc.Tiff.
7, here, we have successfully modified the way the image file is opened, we can close the registry editor, then right click on the file in the image format you want to open, select "ld" ”, you can see the "Windows Photo Viewer" in the list of open programs.
8, or you can double-click the image directly, it will automatically open the image selection method, we can choose to "Windows Photo Viewer", and check "Always use the app to open the File”.
9. Finally, we will see that the familiar Windows Photo Viewer has appeared in front of us. It is very convenient to open or close any picture in the application window.
Method 2:
Newly installed Win10 official version of the user, if you want to continue to use the traditional photo viewer as the default application, you may find that whether it is in the right-click mode of the file or in the Modern version The shadow of the traditional photo viewer is not found in the default app settings. In the traditional control panel, the photo viewer can only choose to associate with the tiff file.
▲Modern version of the default application settings do not have a traditional photo viewer
▲ picture right-click open mode can not find the Windows photo viewer
▲ in the control panel The photo viewer in the file association can only choose to associate with the tiff file.
How to solve this problem? This is not a problem. However, this method needs to modify the registry. If you are afraid of a problem, you can use the soft media cleaning master in the soft media cube (click here to download) to back up the registry beforehand.
The method of fixing the photo viewer file association is as follows:
• First press Win+R to open the run, enter regedit to open the registry editor.
• Expand
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindows Photo ViewerCapabilitiesFileAssociations
• Create a new “string value” on the right side, change the new value name to the file extension to be associated, such as “.jpg"text- Align:center">
After the right-click mode of the jpg file, you can see the traditional Windows photo viewer, as shown below:
Other types of image settings are the same as above, in the registry When the key value is used, the numerical data is always filled in as “PhotoViewer.FileAssoc.Tiff”.
Tips: In the author's testing process, whether it is upgraded from Win8.1 operating system to Win10 system or newly installed Windows10 system, can not find Windows photo viewer, the default is new Modern photo Application, so I hope everyone can use this method to use Windows 10 system more conveniently.
