show a picture with windows photoviewer and be able navigate to next photo

Question

How is it possible to show a photo with Windows photoviewer and be able to navigate forward and backward to the other photos in the directory.

At the moment ich just call the assigned application

var fileNameComplete = @"C:\Temp\sample_photo.png";
Process.Start(fileNameComplete);

and this opens MS photo (in my case), but I am not able to navigate foward and backward to the other pictures in the directory.

You must give the executable file of picture viewer as a FileName parameter to the process:

Process photoViewer = new Process();

//executable file of picture viewer
photoViewer.StartInfo.FileName = @"F:\Google.Picasa\Picasa3\Picasa3.exe";
photoViewer.StartInfo.Arguments =ImagePathString;
photoViewer.Start();
