GIFViewer

GIFViewer is a small software application whose purpose is to help you preview GIF files with the aid of simple actions. It can be deployed on all Windows versions out there.

The utility does not make a very good impression in the visual department. It reveals a plain and a bit outdated GUI that has only a few options to offer. You cannot find a help manual to read more about the tool’s features, but you can quickly make the most out of them because they are quite simplistic.

GIF files can be imported in the working environment using only the built-in browse button (the drag-and-drop support is not implemented).

GIFViewer offers you the possibility to make use of an Explorer-like layout in order to search throughout the content of folders stored on your computer. If the application detects GIF files in a selected directory, it automatically reveals them in a list directly in the main window.

What’s more, it takes nothing more than a simple click on the target GIF item in order to preview it in the main window. You may also view details about the size of the file (height and width) and file path.

Tests have pointed out that GIFViewer carries out a task quickly and without errors. It does not eat up a lot of CPU and memory resources so the overall performance of the computer is not hampered. On the downside, it has not been updated for a long time so it may cause compatibility issues on newer operating systems like Windows 10 and 8.

To sum things up, GIFViewer comes packed with basic features and provides nothing more than a simple software solution for helping you preview GIF files. It is suitable especially for less experienced users.
