Shahdan: Hi..I love this program very-very much. I use it very regularly. It can load image faster then any other image viewer(i think). Try this ok!.. [2006-06-06 02:19]
Raphael: I'm using this baby for years for fast stuff (paintshop pro for the rest) and it is just great. Besides the ability of using photoshop plugins irfanview also creates great html image galeries, multiple image aopperations throug thumbnails an almost everything else besides serious editing.
This is all you need. I dare you to prove me wrong :-) [2006-11-19 06:02]
Rizole: The finest light weight, speedy, simple, unencumbered, non-dependant and versitile graphics programme I have used. Had it for years and at a minimum it works great as a graphics clipboard.
The only limitation I have found is that it can't deal with large files copied and pasted from photoshop. [2006-12-21 15:13]
ken: I find that running it from a flash drive messes up whatever settings (eg associations and shell menu settings) were set by the Irfanview on the host's hard drive. It's overwriting settings kept by the registry! This is not safe "portable app" behavior, especially if I'm doing this on someone else's machine. [2007-04-04 20:30]
tripex: IrfanView is not stealth or even just portable when you activate file associations or shell functions. For this the exe has to be alway on the same place. On a fresh machine or if you move the app folder you need to reregister your desired file associations and of course they are written to the registry. ALL other settings are portable via ini.

Prekese: Get the portable version here:

Cogmios: Is there ANY way to work around the file-associations thing? If an USB user re-sets the file associations to his "F: drive" installation this causes problems for the original owner of the PC. I realize it is a Windows thing but I hope someone has a clue to maybe solve this/workaround. [2008-04-20 15:28]
Kermode: The normal version if portable enough, the new machine doesn't know to call the program if someone clicks on a picture - because guess what - it hasn't been associated with that program. But that's not the programs fault, there is no reason to use a separate launcher. [2008-05-31 13:35]
ChronicChaos: Faststone is MUCH better!!! [2008-07-19 19:57]
DeepAnger: I've tried a lot of alternatives for years. None is as fast as IrfanView, especially in large folders with lots of files. It's the best and the only other picture viewer I use is XnView for its easier way to handle dual screens. [2009-01-02 01:01]
John Germann: I was unable to find a mirror that would let me select a ZIP file. What was I doing wrong? [2009-01-02 07:56]

Andy: What I like is that it can make Windows Icons out of any image - so can Gimp by the way.
- Peace!!! masses [2009-03-24 14:46]
HansBKK: For the File Associations, Shell extensions (Right-click) and other Registry issues, especially in a multi-user environment, have a look at ASSOX http://sites.google.com/site/assoxhome/
Off-topic (not portable)
IrfanView's find for quick-and-dirty icons, but for making proper Windows ICO files (14 different size/resolution in one file - see http://www.axialis.com/tutorials/tutorial-iw015.html), better to use Photoshop and the Icon Plugin from here http://www.telegraphics.com.au/svn/icoformat/trunk/dist/README.html. [2009-09-06 08:29]
avoidz: Best way I find to make IrfanView portable-friendly is to run a PC-installed version (with Plugins), go to Properties/Settings, under Extensions 'Clear all', then uncheck any 'Shell options'. Then copy the whole IrfanView folder to your USB drive. After doing that, re-enable the extensions and shell options on the install PC. I just drag-and-drop images into an open instance since there won't be file associations on the host machine. [2009-11-15 13:57]

All HTML tags will be removed from your comment. URLs (http, https, ftp) will be automatically detected and hyperlinked. I reserve the right to delete irrelevant, frivolous or offensive comments. For more general topics (eg. whether apps that write to the registry, leave traces on the host machine, rely on certain versions of IE etc. can be considered portable), please post to the Portable Freeware Discussion forum. If your virus scanner has detected a virus in the application, please email the author directly or post to the forum. Note that false positives (i.e. flagging a virus when there is actually none) are extremely common for virus scanners. When in doubt, try an online scanner like Online Malware Scanner or VirusTotal, which scans files using multiple anti-virus engines. It is very likely to be a false positive if only a few engines raise the red flag.
