QuickLook

QuickLook is another interesting Windows 10 app that brings macOS’ Quick Look feature to Windows 10.

The app lets you preview most file types from within File Explorer, but large files such as GIFs may not animate smoothly or take extra few seconds to load.

Xpo Music

Xpo Music offers a redesigned and modern user interface of Spotify on Windows 10. Unlike the native Spotify app, Xpo Music doesn’t have a side-bar with too many options and it gives your music choices the priority.
