http://gqview-win.sourceforge.net/

I tested some years ago and was fine (but better integration in Windows
would be possible :-) )

I created that project. But I haven't maintained it for years because of my own work. Now I think a separate package for windows port is not good. And GIMP won't release GTK+ runtime package for windows any more, windows gqview release needs to include its own GTK+ runtime library and skin. Besides, an installer? How about NSIS. 
I hope someone can continue the windows port and keep they are in one source bundle for both platforms.
