What is Quick Image Viewer ?

QuickImageViewer (qIV) A fast, GPU-accelerated image viewer for Windows. Built on Direct2D, WIC, and native Win32 APIs. Single EXE, no installer, no telemetry, ~7 MB. WIC = Windows Imaging Component (OS native, zero dependency) Inline = implemented directly with no third-party library

Features Performance GPU bitmap cache — decoded images live in VRAM, preloaded in both directions Background decode — worker thread pool; UI thread never blocks on IO Instant startup — process stays resident in RAM after first launch (hide to tray with Esc, recall instantly) Software fallback — GDI renderer for edge cases where Direct2D is unavailable
