4.25 from 4 Reviews

The HEIF Image Extensions allows Windows 10 and 11 devices to handle files in the High Efficiency Image File (HEIF) format, identified by the .heic or .heif file extensions.

Can't open .heic or .heif photos on your Windows PC?

Download HEIF Image Extensions to instantly view, edit, and manage High Efficiency Image File (HEIF) format images transferred from your iPhone or iPad.

HEIF files with the .heic extension are typically compressed using the HEVC format, requiring the HEVC Video Extension package for proper reading and writing.

What You Get:

  • Instant .HEIC file support – Open iPhone photos without conversion.
  • Windows 10 & 11 compatible – Works with Photos app and File Explorer.
  • Free download – No subscription or purchase required.
  • Native integration – Seamless Windows experience.

Installation Requirements

Important: .HEIC files use HEVC compression and require the HEVC Video Extension to function properly.

📥 Download both extensions:

  1. HEIF Image Extensions (this page).
  2. HEVC Video Extension – Required for .heic files.

Without both extensions installed, you won't be able to open .heic files from your iPhone.

Worked fine on Win 10 64 bit, after downloading both the Image Extensions and the Video Extensions.

Irfanview promptly opened the HEIC files.
