Very impressed with how light and fluid Phoxee is (maybe the lightest out there). But it's slower than XnView MP to process & load HEIF files. It's also pretty barebones.Fast image viewer, very fast:Folcolor(TM): Windows folder color utility

You can try WizFile too, I knew about it recently, and it is interesting so far, thanks for @partha_roy.Everything.
I didn't know about Everything until I read this thread. Very quick searches, it does a wonderful job.
Battle - Everything vs UltraSearch
I like Everything because it has fast indexing with instant results. What will you choose and why?
XnView lags when opening high-resolution images and cannot open them quickly. There is another program called ImageEye that is fast.
