on MacOS it's a standard feature to be able to preview all kinds of files by simply selecting the file and then pressing the space bar, but it's not a standard feature on Windows, but today I found a program that does just that, QuickLook.
after launching QuickLook it keeps running in the background and then you have that amazing preview ability, I selected various types of documents and it works flawlessly, I even selected a 1,589,616,640 bytes text file and it previewed with no problems, mp3, mp4 or pdf files? no problem.
you get this app from the Microsoft store
