PhotoDemon is a free, open source photo editor for the Microsoft Windows operating system.
PhotoDemon is a well-designed photo editor for Microsoft Windows devices. It is light (only 12 Megabytes), portable and very fast when it comes to opening photos, applying effects or editing and saving.
It is a portable program for Windows environments, ie it does not need to be installed and does not require an administrator license to run. Works for Windows XP to Windows 10.
Simply download the file from its official page on github, extract it to the system and immediately run the PhotoDemon application. The developer promises that the program leaves no traces on your system, except for archives which are placed in the temporary folder.
It supports 12 languages but unfortunately Greek is not among them. The developer states that any translation is welcome if you want to help him. Each language is based on a unique xml file and translating it is not a difficult task. On first run the program asks you to set the Theme and the color scheme of its appearance. To get started, drag and drop one photo in its main window or use the provided loading options.
PhotoDemon offers projection and batch photo editing, as well as built-in macro recording to speed up frequently used processes.
