XYplorer Beta Club
It works fine with jpg files. It won't work with pdf files. I have tried every setting under under preview. And I tried different default pdf readers, Acrobat and Edge.
I am using windows11 64 bit on an Intel NUC13.
It worked on my last PC so not sure what the problem is.
I would really appreciate any ideas to get this to work.

Re: MOUSE DOWN BLOW UP WILL NOT DISPLAY PDF FILES
What "view" are you in when you're trying to blow up the PDFs? Are you in a list or details view or in a thumbnail view? If in a details or list view, do you have "Enable blow ups on file icons as well" checked in Configuration for "Mouse Down Blow-up"?

Responding to the admin post:
I am not sure what you mean by where does my mouse go down
Responding to Klownboy:
I am in a list view with the icons displayed as well as the file names. And I did enable blow ups on file icons in the configuration settings...

Forget it, reinstalling the software does not change anything. XY is fully portable.
I can't understand why it doesn't work. Is it the same with MDBU on the thumbnails?

sorry, are icons and thumbnails not the same thing? Assuming they are, I get the same results with MDBU...

Using 23.90.0400
I'm seeing similar behavior. Hovering over the file icon presents this: I have the info pane at the bottom and the Preview tab shows a preview of the PDF. Double-clicking the file name opens in in Foxit Reader.
Mouse-down on the file name or the icon does not bring up a preview.
CFA for PDFs is set properly:
