    Preview Pane


    Hello Friends,
    When I selecting one image file in explorer, I am unable to see the preview in Preview Pane.
    I am able to see only the icon in preview pane.

    Here's a solution for Vista, I don't know if it still applies

       Warning
    This involves registry editing, please backup your registry before attempting anything.

    Preview Pane Tool ... for Vista only
    - does not work in Win7 (I tried it in April 2013)

    To enable "Preview Pane"
    Win Explorer
    Action Bar (under Menu Bar)
    Organize > Layout > Preview Pane ... toogles the pane on/off)
    - OR icon (Preview Pane) at right-hand end of "Action Bar"
    Show thumbnails of image files in WinExp (WinXP/7)
    WinExp > Tools > Folder Options > View (tab)
    - OR ... Win-Exp > Action Bar (under Menu Bar) > Organize > Folder Options > View (tab)
    Advanced Settings (list) > Files and Folders
    [ ] Always show icons, never thumbnails <<< UNCHECKED
