For this situation, I prefer to use an AutoHotkey script to turn it on and off. I've already written one, just like Seer and QuickLook.

I don't want to unnecessarily rehash this thread. Seer really isn't bad and is better than QuickLook, but there is also another option for having a kind of standalone viewer that you can use in an ‘emergency’ – the Universal Viewer.

Code: Select all

Run """C:\Xyplorer\Tools\UViewer\Viewer.exe""  ""<curitem>""";

There is Total Commander support for it
and Free Commander has an integrated version of it.
The best of it, you can add all free Total commander plugins to extend its file formats.

For me, without in-depth scripting knowledge, the viewer is the better choice. Can access 22 plugins from the TC directly - if the XY quick view should not be enough.
