You do not have a Mac but prefer the preview feature of macOS file contents? Here's how to bring it to Windows 10.


On macOS, you can select any file and just press the longest key on your keyboard as the Spacebar to preview the contents of the file before opening it with the default dedicated application.

This is a quick way to preview the contents of an image file. And even document files do not need to use a lot of system resources. Also, if it's a ZIP file, you can know what's inside before opening it.
On Windows 10, if you open the View tab from the File Explorer Ribbon, you will find the Preview Pane option at the top left corner. Each time you select a file compatible with the Preview Pane, you can preview its content immediately.However, this framework does not support most file formats including popular formats such as PDF and ZIP.


So today, we will show you how to bring the Preview function of macOS to Windows 10.

Seer for Windows is a free application that allows you to experience the preview feature of macOS on a Windows computer. According to the developer, Seer does not simply put that functionality on Windows 10, they even make it better, faster and more powerful.
