It was ticked but unselecting it doesn't change the error.
It will fall back to the x64 handler because of the enabled option "Fall back to the preview handler of the other bitness".

Ahh. Well, I was on the latest full release, and then went to the beta to see if it worked. I'll keep a look out for next releases.

Thank you all!

Please try the current beta v22.10.0206 and see if it works.

Your new blocking of x64 msg preview prevents the successfull preview I had
with all version before v22.10.0206
Even a User defined preview handler doesn't work.

I think I know what to do. In the next beta it will work again.

Thanks, with version v22.10.0208 its works again

I'm curious to see what this returns at your end:

But I doubt that this is correct. It's afaik a 64-bit preview handler only

Here:

Code: Select all

Previewed extension: msg
Preview handler bitness: 32-bit
Preview handler: 
Preview handler GUID: {37742665-fa1f-4da6-9c29-59fdfba13fd7} [User-Defined]
Initialization type: IInitializeWithFile

But I doubt that this is correct. It's afaik a 64-bit preview handler only

1) What is {37742665-fa1f-4da6-9c29-59fdfba13fd7}? Is there any friendly name (see image)? I wonder why the "Preview handler:" field is empty. 2) The MSG preview is internally forced to be 32-bit always.

Strange. It should be Preview handler: Class1 according to your shot.

For me is the same as Highend reported
The shellex key says its a preview handler
and the Default value {37742665-fa1f-4da6-9c29-59fdfba13fd7} is its Id

Some info from the DLL file header

FILE CHARACTERISTICS :
File is executable (i.e. no unresolved external references)
LARGE_ADDRESS_AWARE (can handle >2Gb Addresses)
File is a DLL

FILE HEADER :
Machine: 8664h (AMD64 (K8))

Target OS : Win32 (0x4)

So its definitely an x64 preview handler.

Well, it's definitely not started from the XY64.exe process. I always thought 64-bit handlers cannot be run from 32-bit processes? So maybe that's not true...

I'm now running the latest official release. I see in the notes previewing .msg supposed to work, but I still am having the same issue. Doesn't seem to matter what boxes I check under the Shell Integration -> 64 Bit Windows area?

BTW, when I paste this in:

text get("previewhandler"); //while a MSG preview is shown

I get no preview handler is used.

Best,
