Any advice for someone looking to copy a 84.7GB Mac OS Photos Library to a Windows machine?

I spent 2+ years going through a 160GB Google Photos export getting rid of duplicates and photos I don't like. I now use a Windows Desktop at home as my primary computer.

Any advice for what photo application to use on Windows? I prefer not to have subscriptions as I still use iCloud photos as my "primary" photo repository.

My plan of attack:
1. Export Photos Database to an external drive.
2. Figure out what program to use on Windows.
3. Try to import photos into Windows photos application.

Thanks for any advice,

-Paul
