Preview Pane

[sujitmaharana]

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.

 

[not so gray matter]

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.

(An old thread I know, inserted this solution for lookers)

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
