There is nothing much to choose during this process except confirming the setup’s installation location. Following operating systems are compatible with this application:  Windows 7/8 (32-bit and 64-bit).

A large area of the window is given for the platform to edit the image and below that another set of tools is given to perform actions like: zoom in/out, view metadata, and share via Facebook, Twitter, or email.
