Does Windows 10 Need 3D Viewer?

Is 3D Viewer needed for Windows 10?

Probably not. Microsoft’s fascination with 3D technology makes for flashy demos, but it’s irrelevant for the rest of us. If you have a 3D printer, take a look at the 3D Viewer and Print 3D apps and decide whether they’re good enough for your day-to-day use.

What is Microsoft 3D Viewer and do I need it?

3D Viewer is capable of importing and exporting models in a variety of ways. It supports FBX, STL, OBJ, glTF, GLB, PLY, 3MF, and many other common 3D file formats, meaning that it can view just about any file you can throw at it!
