Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 18323 Releases: Improved RAW image format support

Microsoft is currently pushing Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 18323 for Fast Ring users in the Insider Preview program. The focus of this update is to bring support for RAW image formats, which is now available to photographers. Of course, it is still in the testing phase, so users need to download the RAW format extension in the app store. After installing the extension, you can directly extract the data.

Currently, the Raw Image Extension only supports Windows 10 Build 18323 and above. After the user installs the extension, Windows 10 File Explorer can view .RAW images directly, including viewing photo metadata and more.

At the same time, built-in photos and third-party applications compatible with the Windows Imaging Component framework can also view .RAW images directly. Need to be reminded that the built-in and third-party compatible applications after installing this extension can view images in RAW format at full resolution and complete.
