RAW Format Extension is an app that adds support for the native display of images taken as RAW files. These types of files are commonly generated by most mid-range and high-end cameras, including reflex, mirrorless, and smartphone cameras. Once you've installed this extension, you can view RAW file thumbnails and metadata directly from Windows File Explorer or the Photos app. Supported formats include .CR2, .CR3, and .DNG, among others. It's important to note that the RAW codec offered by RAW Format Extension requires a number of modifications in order to run properly on Windows. For this reason, you'll need the Windows 10 May 2019 Update (version number 1903) or later installed, so if you can't install the extension, it's probably because your computer is running an earlier version of Windows. In this case, the best option is updating the operating system. It's also important to note that RAW Format Extension is not exactly an application. That is to say, you can't interact directly with it. RAW Format Extension installs a codec on the operating system, which is later used by other Windows applications like File Explorer and the Photos app to decode RAW images. In short, RAW Format Extension is a must-have app for photography enthusiasts who regularly work with large amounts of photos or simply want to keep their gallery organized. Once you've installed this extension, you can instantly see all the relevant information about each photo you've taken with your camera (as long as they're in RAW format, of course).
