I use Image Glass for viewing & also FastStone Image Viewer for a little photo tweaking - I used to do more intensive photographic work but now have a Lumix Bridge & the couple of programs (both free) mentioned do what I need at this time.

I use Windows Photo Viewer for viewing and Gimp for editing photos.

I use IrfanView because of its simplicity and the fastest loading speed in my experience. It opens images so fast as if it was already open in the background.

Hi, I use Microsoft build-in Photo Viewer.

I use Adobe Photoshop CC (editing), Adobe Lightroom (editing and viewing) and Adobe Bridge (viewing). All are paid software.

They are very convenient for me because I use them for work too. I find Bridge is great for navigating, viewing and editing folders with large numbers of images.

I have used free alternatives (Fast Stone, XnView) in the past, but integration with the Adobe suite wasn't as smooth.
