I'm just using

Code: Select all

"Windows Photo Viewer" {:Image}>::run """%SystemRoot%\System32\rundll32.exe"" ""%ProgramFiles%\Windows Photo Viewer\PhotoViewer.dll"", ImageView_Fullscreen <curitem>";
as an entry in my Custom File Associations

Me too and it works perfectly but most times I'm just happy with XY's full screen preview (F11).

Read up in the help file about CFA (Custom File Associations) and then add this line as your top level CFA in XY and you're all set.
