Preview .msg files "No Preview Available"
Preview .msg files "No Preview Available"
Hello,
Version 22.10.0200
I followed the instructions to move .eml and .msg into the Office Files preview formats.
Nevertheless, I still get "No Preview Available" when choosing a .msg file from Outlook.
Thank you,

Re: Preview .msg files "No Preview Available"
If you don't have a Outlook installation you need to install a Windows preview handler.
I have found only one for free, which works fine for me.

With a Outlook installation you should have a preview handler available.
Test it with Windows Explorer.

Re: Preview .msg files "No Preview Available"
Hello,
I happen to have the full suite of Office 365 installed, along with the Outlook client, etc.
The preview works fine in both Windows Explorer and Directory Opus.
I also did a "repair" on Office, nothing changed.

I should add I've tried multiple combinations of the 64 bit preview ifilter and previewer settings - nothing fixes it.
My version of Office is 64 bit, btw.

Re: Preview .msg files "No Preview Available"
If the Explorer preview works the problem is only with XYplorer
Do you have the following settings under configuration / Other / Shell Integration / 64.bit Windows
Also the msg extension should only enabled in the Previewed Formats under Office Files.

For the preview of eml files you should add this extension in the settings for the

Hello,
I have everything checked under "64 Bit Windows" in the Shell Integration settings.
I have unchecked the .eml and .msg in the Text handlers and checked them in the Office handlers.

Re: Preview .msg files "No Preview Available"
With Office 2019 32bit and Preview Formats and Shell Integration settings as described above this works as expected.
Does Office 365 install its 32-bit preview handlers when the 64-bit version is installed?

Re: Preview .msg files "No Preview Available"
Office 365 has a mind of it's own - it installs the 64 bit version now by default, and no ability to modify anything unless you get into the deployment tool.
I searched quite a bit for any resemblance of a 32 bit handler install of some kind that I could pull down separately, but couldn't find anything.

Re: Preview .msg files "No Preview Available"
MSG files have been excluded from the 64-bit preview in v20.90.0917 - 2020-08-31 13:26 because it just did not work. I will remove that exclusion in the next beta. Let's see what happens. Windows is changing all the time...

Re: Preview .msg files "No Preview Available"
And why can I preview msg files with the installed x64 BrandsCT msg preview handler ?

Re: Preview .msg files "No Preview Available"
With the current version of XY this MUST be a 32-bit preview, wherever it comes from.

Re: Preview .msg files "No Preview Available"
For me the new beta is a mistake.
My previously working msg preview now gives the error below.
It not a big problem for me, I have a working much better msg preview in Total Commander.
Lets see if Outlook users now have a preview in XY.
The Window error report file (WER)

Did you tick Configuration | Other | Shell Integration | 64-bit Windows | [x] Use 64-bit preview handlers for preview? If yes untick it.
