Can't find Windows image viewer in file associations

Hello,

I can't find native Windows image viewer in file associations to open jpgs/pngs. When I try to associate it in Bridge preferences I cannot find that program in any folder of my computer. It looks like this aplication is hidden.

Can anyone help me with this, please?

Best

    Could you try looking here and let us know if you can find it here? C:\Program Files\Windows Photo Viewer\PhotoViewer.dll

    Hi Oriolv,

    It's a windows related issue with Windows 10 operating system as Microsoft has disabled or removed the default Image viewer and replaced it with Photos app.

    Regards,

    Thanks for your reply Sahil.Chawla​

    In fact, I'm using Windows 7, and photo viewer work well with other applications, but cannot find it within Bridge and cannot associate ".jpg" files.
