Windows Photo Viewer - impossible to resize the window
original title: Windows Photo Viewer window control
When you view a picture with Windows Photo Viewer, it always opens in the mode full screen. The window rolls back down, but then resize by dragging the borders and all the tools are out of reach. However several times that I close the program "restore down", (even by using the CTRL, main and making it last window close) it's always back to full screen for the next time I open a photo with her. I tried to adjust the resolution but it did not help and the resolution is fine in all other respects. Any suggestions?... Thank you

Photo Viewer seem to use the incorrect color profile.
I created a color profile by using X-Rite color grading equipment. All my programs on my PC Windows 7 display the colors correctly except the photo viewer that shows all the colors in the dark.
For example in Photoshop or Microsoft Office Picture Manager, you can see the details in the shadows, but with the same photo in Photo Viewer, the shadows are so dark that they don't see all the details and all the colors seem much more dark and intense.
I used to use windows XP and did not have this problem. Color calibration equipment is new and I use the latest version of the X-rite software on my Samsung SyncMaster monitor. I found this same problem on another computer in Windows 7 with another Samsung monitor, but I don't think that its really a Samsung problem because I can not find another program except Windows 7 photo viewer that has this problem.
I want to continue to use the Windows Photo Viewer, because it is quick and easy and is well integrated into other windows functions.
I think it would be a simple solution to tell the photo viewer to use the correct color profile or simply to increase the brightness in Photo Viewer, but I can't find where is the setting.Thanks for any help to solve this problem.
Success! ICC v2 switch fixed it. Thanks Alexander_L and dphildphil

Win Windows 7 photo viewer will not open the .psf files
Windows Photo Viewer does not open. PSF files from Epson?
Programs can recognize only the files they are supposed to use.
In the case of the Windows Photo Viewer, the official documentation says that it can display the following types of files (although you can add a little more by installing one or more codecs- LINK):
Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG)
.jpg and .jpeg,
Tagged Image File Format (TIFF)
. TIF and .tiff
Portable Network Graphics (PNG)
.PNG
Graphics Interchange Format (GIF)
.gif
Bitmap image
.bmp and DIBs
HD Photo
. WDP
Do you really mean PSF files? As far as I can tell, a PSF file is probably an Adobe Photoshop proof Settings file.
If you mean PDF files - which are outputs to any scanner - you can view these last with the free Adobe Reader or Foxit Readerfree software, among others.

Problems to tiff in the Windows Photo Viewer files
I'm having a problem with a multi-page tif 1 MB file in Windows 7 with the Windows Photo Viewer, but can open the file on any of our workstations Windows XP with Windows Picture and Fax Viewer. The error I get is:
"Windows Photo Viewer cannot open the image because the file seems corrupted, altered, or is too large."
I installed the Windows TIFF IFilter, and we can get a preview of this same tif file in Outlook 2007 on Windows 7 computers. Just can't understand why Windows XP is not a problem but because of Windows 7.
Thank you.
You have great people skills. Keep it up.
Have a nice day and thanks again for your help.

I'm having a problem with the Windows Photo Viewer!
Hello
My windows is not working. Whenever I tried to open a photo through the windows photo viewer. It shows an error massage.
And here's the screenshot of this massage...
So, I thought that there is something missing in the folder of windows photo viewer. And checked the file. And I saw that there is no file exe to the windows photo viewer. So, how it will run if there is no Executive file? After the second that tried to download this program net. It is not available anywhere. So please tell me how can I recover this file? How I open a photo through the windows photo viewer?
You must identify the program, the pilot or the malicious program that uses the host to consume resources, but these system related processes is not a good idea.
Read the technical notes for advanced malware cleaning (identifying your process) and download process explorer to help ID the source of the problem.
There are resources within Windows for process ID using the columns PID, but I think process explore might be easier for you to use.

Change the brightness, contrast, and color in the photo viewer in win 7?
How to change the brightness, contrast and color in the windows photo viewer 7 (I used the fix option in xp and vista)
Thanks for any help.Hi epse30,
In Windows Vista Windows Picture and Fax Viewer has been replaced by the Windows Photo Gallery and there was an option to set the brightness, contrast, etc by using the Fix as you said.
Unfortunately, this option is not available with the Windows Photo Viewer in Windows 7.
However, Windows Live Photo Gallery has a number of easy to use tools for things like red eye fixing or clearing exposure and low light situations. Windows Live Photo Gallery gives you more creative control over your photos. You can download Windows Live Photo Gallery for free from the link below;

The above article is for Windows Vista, but it remains valid for Windows 7 as well.

I am on Windows 7 and using Photo Viewer to watch 5 tiff files. I can open all tiff files in photoshop or psp, but not in photoviewer. Here, I can open only 2 smaller files. Is there a limit of size on the photo viewer (it seems). The files that I can not open are 1.45
Helloa. like you said that the size of file that 1.45, could you give the exact size in MB, GB or KB?b. Since the photoviewer is used to display basic tiff files, if the file contains additional metadata information that can not be played on photoviewer it could give you the error message.1 copy these pictures on another computer in Windows 7 and check if the files open.2. you can also try to change the file format and check if it converts in this format and it opens correctly.You can see the following article on changing the file format.Change the file type of the image (file format) using paint

Method 1.
Check that you are doing the default Windows Photo Viewer.
Try the steps below; It could help us solve the problem.
1. open default programs by clicking the Start button.
2. click on Control Panel, and then click default programs.
3. set your default programs. This option allows to choose the programs that Windows uses by default.
4. Select Windows Photo Viewer in the list and click Set this program as default.
5. try to access photo and check if it opens with the Windows Photo Viewer.
Also access the link to know how to set and change your default programs: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Change-which-programs-Windows-uses-by-default
Method 2.
I suggest that you can exercise SFC scan and check if that helps. The SFC/SCANNOW command analyzes all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions.
