Preview Pane
One of the more useful features of both Vista and Windows 7 is the inline "Preview Pane" of Windows Explorer.
On little quirk I've discovered in Windows 7 is that when you resize a Windows Explorer window, the Preview Pane is resized also, in favour of the file lists. However, I like my preview pane a specifc size.
The follow method is one workaround I used with success:
Has anyone found a way (either via a UI Setting, or a Registry entry) to keep the Preview Pane a fixed size, so that the above workaround does not have to be used?
- Click the "Hide Preview Pane" icon in the upper right corner (to the left of Help) of Windows Explorer
- Resize the Windows Explorer window to how you want it
- Click the "Show Preview Pane" icon in the upper right corner (to the left of Help) of Windows Explorer
