Universal Viewer is awesome not only as a standalone application but also as an external viewer for Total Commander, where it replaces many Total Commander extensions needed for the internal Viewer to be able to render various file formats correctly. And it even supports the Total Commander's Viewer extensions so you may install support for additional file formats in (rare) case it doesn't support some!
The only issue may be that compared with the internal Viewer, the Universal Viewer is unfortunately not able to display big files.

Universal Viewer is one of the BEST softwares that I have come across in all categories. It is extremely convenient and time saving as documents in all formats as well as images can be 'opened without opening'. The tardy process of opening each file contained in a folder, one at a time, is eliminated. For images other such viewers are aplently but for documents .. this is WOW ! Thank you for this priceless gift, UVViewSoft Developer.
