I've just bought XYplorer and with some video file (avi, but maybe also other files) the video preview runs only with the first selected file. From the second one, preview doesn't run. Another problem: selecting a pdf file (system program Acrobat Reader, my system is Win10 64), this on is signed, in the preview area, as impossible to open.
Thanks.

Hi and welcome,
1) which preview is that (preview tab, preview pane, floating preview)?
2) What happens, you get an error message?

Re: Video preview (and other previews) not running with some files
i'm referring to the preview panel:
- with pdf files: program says "preview impossible" (system default associated program: Adobe reader)
- with video files: after some correctly previewed video files, Xyplorer crashes.
Thanks.

1) Acrobat Reader is a source of problems ever since. You are one of hundreds of users that have been reporting this over the years. Unfortunately I cannot fix Acrobat Reader. I can only recommend to use something else: PDF-XChange is free and works perfectly with XYplorer, and is much faster than Acrobat Reader.
2) That's weird. What do you get when you paste this into the XYplorer Address Bar and press enter:

Remove the
text from the command
It is really just:
text get("previewhandler", "avi");
Code: Select all
SELECT ALL
It is really just:
text get("previewhandler", "avi");

Thank you.
The result from the input is:

Windows Media Player Rich Preview Handler
@wmploc.dll,-144

Same here. Only that I *can* preview AVI in the Floating Preview. Weird.
