Hi to all,
I'm trying to launch the 'Windows Picture and Fax Viewer' program from a Java program as a separate process in order to display some JPEGS. Trouble is I don't know it's location or what Windows call it. Does anyone at least know its location? I've been looking for it in %windir%\System32 but no luck so far. Thanks for your help in advance.

Which version of Windows does it run on? Have you tried running it and then viewing a list of the running processes (using Windows Task Manager)?
