How to set the photo viewer as the default viewing tool in Win10

  
                

On the Win10 system, by default we view an image file and the system will run the Metro style photo app to open the image (as shown below). But many people prefer to use the traditional Windows Photo Viewer to view images. So how do you make the Windows Photo Viewer the default Win10 viewing tool?

Operation

1. Right-click the image file, select Properties to bring up the Properties dialog box.

2. On the right side of the open mode, select Change.

3. In the options that appear, select Windows Photo Viewer.

4. Click OK to complete the operation, see the results.

After this open the photo file formats will use the default Windows Photo Viewer, rather than a photo application. After all, the photo application that appeared from Win8 is not used by most people.
