Graphic file previews gone in Explorer

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.win2000.general (More info?)

After removing Corel Draw and associated components from a Win2K Pro box
I no longer have previews in the left pane using Explorer and selecting
(single click) graphics files. How do I ge the previews back? I can't
find anything in Folder Options that seems related. I know they are
available native in Win2K as another box that never has had any graphics
suite software installed shows the previews in Explorer.

Thanks,
Steve

The easiest thing to do is concentrate on one file type first. Let's consider jpg. Make sure in the registry the entry HKCR\.jpg is set to (default) REG_SZ jpegfile. Then make sure you have this below that key:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.jpg\ShellEx
(default) REG_SZ not set

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.jpg\ShellEx\{BB2E617C-0920-11d1-9A0B-00C04FC2D6C1}
(default) REG_SZ {7376D660-C583-11d0-A3A5-00C04FD706EC}

The above two entries are what gives you the image preview. That long "number" is the CLSID of the component which gives you the preview.

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{7376D660-C583-11d0-A3A5-00C04FD706EC}
(default) REG_SZ TridentImageExtractor
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{7376D660-C583-11d0-A3A5-00C04FD706EC}\InProcServer32
(default) REG_EXPAND_SZ %SystemRoot%\System32\browseui.dll
ThreadingModel Both REG_SZ Both

I have no HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID at all. Am I to understand I need to
add these two entries?

Thanks again,

This is not possible. You must have HKCR\CLSID or your system would not work at all. So what we may have is a security issue. Make sure you are accessing regedit as Administrator. Here's a link to what I told you.

My mistake. I was looking at entries starting with a "." off of
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT. Both those entries are there also.

I've read the article, the problem appears to be that I do not have the
"View as webpage" option for folders. Any ideas how to ge that option
back? I've searched some on Google and MS but found nothing yet.

Well Windows Explorer | Tools | Folder Options... | View | General | Web View | check Enable Web content in folders | Apply | OK

Close Windows Explorer and re-open it.

What I see here is Windows Explorer | Tools | Folder Options... General
| Web View | check Enable Web content in folders | Apply | OK

It is already checked.

I've managed to set specific folders to show image previews otherwise,
using Customize This Folder Options but it does not apply globaly. I
have to to do it for each folder.

Does this have anything to do with SP levels? I'm at SP3 here. Will SP4
have any effect on this?

Thans again George,
Steve
