Photo downloading and munipulation?
Purchased a new HP laptop with windows 10 and need to find a program for downloading photos from SD card and manipulating them. What would you suggest?

Irfanview has been my choice for a long time, but after I got a game cam I switched over to FastStone. FSViewer allows basic editing (color correction, resize, brightness, crop, etc.) very similar to Irfanview.
The features that I like better are the thumbnail viewer and the batch processing. The FSViewer allows viewing thumbnails and a single enlargement in the same window pane while Irfanview requires some window hopping. And you can also view enlarged sections of a photo and you can compare multiple photos side by side - as you pan across one photo the others selected pan in sequence with it.
FSViewer also is a bit easier to use for batch operations.
It is free for home & educational use but a paid license is required for commercial use.
