If you switch from a Mac to a Windows computer, you will lose the Quick Look capability. This feature allows you to preview all of the content in the files before double-clicking to open them. 

Fortunately, this feature is now available to Windows users as well. QuickLook is a specialist application that provides a comparable fast look feature on your Windows machine. It allows you to preview the content of many file kinds and improves the overall user experience.

One Key for Previewing Content 

When you wish to view the contents of a certain file without opening it with the default software, simply select it with your cursor and then press the Space key on your keyboard. That will cause a small window to appear on the screen, displaying the content of the file. 

QuickLook for PC allows you to preview files containing text, archives, videos, and photos. Documents include PDFs and word processing documents such as Microsoft Word. In the preview box, you can watch videos, read text, view photographs, and zoom in and out. 

Search and open files 

During a file preview, you can select to open the file using the default program. The application's name will be shown in the upper-right corner of the window. If you've used Quick Look on a Mac before, you can use the arrow keys to cycle among the files and information. Because you have an active preview, you can navigate to a new folder.

PROS

  • Quickly preview with Spacebar 
  • Supports different file types. 
  • HiDPI compatibility. 
  • Compatible with third-party file managers. 
  • Free under a strong GPL license.

CONS

  • Limited system requirements

Conclusion

QuickLook for Windows 11/10 allows you to do a variety of tasks, particularly because it supports a wide range of formats. When you migrate from macOS to Windows, or simply wish to have this wonderful feature on Windows, you'll need to download this application.
