Windows Photo Viewer is one of the things that gets removed, or hidden from access after upgrading to Windows 10. The new Photos app takes charge as the default handler for image files in Windows 10.
The good news is Windows Photo Viewer application still exists in the same location in Windows 10, but what is removed is only its registration. If you’re not a fan of the new Photos app, you can revert back to the built-in and light-weight Windows Photo Viewer.
Microsoft is looking to transform most of the built-in Windows 10 tools and programs into modern or UWP apps. That’s probably the reason why Microsoft decided to keep Windows Photo Viewer hidden in Windows 10.
Photo Viewer DLL version comparison between Windows 7 & Windows 10
To activate Windows Photo Viewer, you need to add the necessary registry keys for application registration and file associations.
After applying the registry file below, the Windows Photo Viewer is displayed as an option in the Default apps window, the classic Default Programs applet and as well as in the Open with dialog.
How to Restore Windows Photo Viewer in Windows 10
To restore Windows Photo Viewer in Windows 10, follow these steps:
- Download w10-wpv-restore.zip
- Unzip and run the attached .reg file by double-clicking.
Windows Photo Viewer will now show up in Default Programs or Default Apps, and the file association settings for BMP, DIB, JFIF, JPE, JPEG, JPG, PNG, TIF, TIFF, WDP types are added.
- Click Start → Settings → Apps → Default apps.
- Under “Photo viewer”, select Windows Photo Viewer from the list.
This associates the above-said image files types with Windows Photo Viewer. To set it as the default viewer for chosen image files types only, click Choose default apps by file type and configure it accordingly.
Note that you can also use the Open with dialog to set Windows Photo Viewer on a per-file type basis.
Cannot import the REG file?
If you get this error when running the REG file, no problem. Most of the settings would have been written correctly. Perhaps the file got stuck when writing to TIF/TIFF association settings, as the association for TIF/TIFF already exists even after upgrading to Windows 10. You may ignore the error message and move on.

I got same problem…
But my friend suggest me to use KrojamSoft PhotoViewerPro and I really like that Photo viewer than default image viewer
Brilliant Just Brilliant!!!!!!
Thanks dude..
Ah-mazing! Thank you!
I’ve got a problem.
when i Click “Choose defaults for this program”, I only find TIF and TIFF formats !
awesome man … thx
Genius. Nicely done my friend 🙂
Thank you! Why does this have to be so hard?!
@Ryan: Because MS is promoting its UWP apps, and classic apps will vanish one by one in future. Fortunately, WPV is not one among the earliest ones to go.
Hi!
Sir,
When double click on this registry file. I found “Cannot import the REG file” and this press “OK” button.
After that, I go to the “Set your default Programme”, i click on Windows Photo Viewer and than “Choose defaults for this program”.
But i have not found other extensions of Images otherwise “TIF/TIFF”.
Help me about this error.
Saved me! So much thanks!
Regarding one click fix, just download Winaero tweaker and it adds photoviewer with one click fix . Also you can tweak many things on windows withit .Sadly to say, the old tweaks used to add Control Userpasswords2 to the Control Panel, but hey, just download the registry Tweak. Remember these are tweaks, not Hacks. One doesn’t hack his registry, by tuning/tweaking/changing settings or values.
Just a quick annoyance rant. This is the third time I’ve needed to fix the Windows Photo Viewer by running the registry editing “Activate-Windows-Photo-Viewer-on-Windows-10” script. It works very well, thank you. One of the few points of control we have in the never-ending stream of software quicksand being dumped on us daily.
Thank you!
Perfect. Thank you
Thanks! , I was really looking for it.
This is the only solution I’ve found that actually works. Thank you!
Thank you, Ramesh !
Didn’t work for me….grrr.
I followed the instructions and it worked. I am very pleased.
I can’t stand the Windows 10 Photos app.
