QuickView is a file viewer application in Windows 95, Windows 98 and Windows NT operating systems. With some workarounds the viewer can be used to view practically any file [1]. However, starting with Windows 2000 and Windows ME, the utility is no longer present in the operating system line[2][3], although similarly-named commercial alternatives such as QuickView Plus[4] exist for the newer operating systems.
