.pdf Thumbnail preview

Hi guys,

On Windows 10 x64 and I've just noticed I no longer get thumbnail previews of my .pdf's? Any ideas :confused:

There's a dubious looking 'fix' out there but it didn't work for me...

Thanks.

Explorer -> View -> Preview Pane.

that what you looking for?

It appears it was a disabled setting in Acrobat... no need for any separate addons :rolleyes:

Ditch Acrobat, install SumatraPDF

Back with this again...

No previews. It's weird, but when I right-click, properties and attempt to select the PDF tab, my system initially hangs

Have tried a repair installation, no joy. Any ideas?

Lies. I just remoted in to my Windows box to double check, and yep - previews present and correct. Sumatra > *.

Edit: Just realised your epic (albeit justifiable) necro! :eek:

Advice stands. Ditch the bloat and join the fun, unless there's an Adobe feature you *really* need (in which case ask them to fix their junk lol).
