Location of Windows Picture & Fax viewer?

Post by smidley »

Hey guys. I'm setting up litestep on my computer and it wants to know the location of the image viewer that I would like to use. I want to use the Windows Picture & Fax viewer program. You know, the default one for windows xp. Anyways, does anyone know the actual location of the executable that does this? I'm unable to find it on my pc. Thanx a lot.

It's not an EXE file but is contained inside an MS DLL file. This is the path to it:

rundll32.exe %SystemRoot%\System32\shimgvw.dll,ImageView_Fullscreen %1

M$ is famous for interoperability - but only with their own products ;)

You have the freedom to do exactly as I say.
anything is possible - nothing is free

Just use the path above. That IS the location.
