    The viewer part is fantastic for just quickly viewing images. It opens images pretty much instantly, shows thumbnail previews and zooms on scroll. I'm yet to find an image viewer for windows that has all these features.

    The face recognition is also pretty great, despite the program's age. It's a shame it was discontinued.

    This is the best image viewer I have used. It's fast and takes almost no time to open.

    The description, when you click Windows, says FastStone Image Viewer is a popular alternative. It also says, wrongly, "it's not free". It is free for normal people so I feel that is an error. You only have to pay if you are a company.
