To be frank, the Files App is among the top Windows 11 apps, without any doubt. It’s open-source, there are no ads and absolutely free to download from the Microsoft Store. It supports multiple themes, column view browsing like macOS, large icon grid, an intuitive dark mode, and more. I have been using the Files app for some time, and you will find all the features of the native File Explorer and more. It’s a modern file explorer in every sense, developed on the latest WinUI framework, and works great with both mouse/ keyboard and touch inputs. In case you are still not enamored by the new changes, you can switch to Files App by Yair A. The app is available on Microsoft Store, and it’s free. It’s a small utility that enables quick preview for not just images but also files and folders.

So our first recommendation on this list of best Windows 11 apps is QuickLook, and it fixes this problem. Windows is usually considered more versatile and feature-rich than other OSes, but not having this feature natively makes you think that there are many things that can be improved in Windows 11.

Those who move to Windows from macOS, or for that matter, Chrome OS, find it annoying that there is no quick way to preview images on Windows 11.
