Preview Pane PDF display oddity

[davidzvi]

When I preview any file other than a PDF it displays fine (only limited by my system's file handler). When I preview a PDF it seems to shift left (under the file /directory listing) and has blank space to the right.

Laptop
1920 x 1200 - I saw comment about resolution mismatch with multiple displays. Happens on single or multi (attached) displays.
i7 - 11th gen
16gb ram
Win 11 Home 64 bit

I do have another laptop (work) running Win 10 Pro that I do not notice this.

Suggestions?

When I preview any file type other than pdf I get:

Preview other file.png

When I preview a pdf I get:

Preview PDF.png

What are you using for PDF viewing? Adobe?

[davidzvi]

I've tried it with the current free version of Foxit PDF (viewer 11.2). And an older version of Adobe Acrobat X (version 10.1.16).

I used Windows "Default Apps" to switch between the two.

Current Windows info:

Edition Windows 11 Home
Version 22H2
Installed ‎6/‎3/‎2022

Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.22632.1000.0

Thanks. Does it fix the position if you resize the preview window?

[davidzvi]

Nope.

Resizing preview, application, or resizing preview after resizing application.

What if you untick both:
Configuration | Other | Shell Integration | 64-bit Windows | Use 64-bit preview handlers for preview
Configuration | Other | Shell Integration | 64-bit Windows | Fall back to preview handlers of the other bitness

[davidzvi]

Was un-checked - no difference turning it on.

[davidzvi]

Actually I should say this resulted in "cannot preview" when unchecked.

[admin]

I thought so. The issue is definitely related to the 64-bit preview. But I already tried to solve it some time ago without success. I will try again when my new Win11 system is up.

[admin]

One more question: When you do the Floating Preview (F11), do you see the same issue?

[highend]

Judging from viewtopic.php?f=3&t=24735
I guess the answer will be: yes

No chance. ATM this is unfixable. Windows 10 and later is full of weird hacks, and I cannot outhack this one it seems.
