Lightbox style image browser for Windows

Software Recommendations Asked on November 5, 2021

Picassa used to have that cool feature, but it’s gone.

I simply want to browse my pictures with lightbox effect, using mousewheel to zoom in/out and arrows to switch between photos.

Is it something out there ?

Thank you
