I have disabled preview of PDF filetype in web & office file category but XYplorer shows preview.

Other disabled filetypes are not showing the preview.

I think it shows just the thumbnails (preview created by shell). To exclude even this you can use the NoPrevShell tweak.

Code: Select all

    + Tweak to exclude certain file types (identified by extension) from 
      the shell-made preview and thumbnails.
      This would exclude MHT and URL files:
        [Settings]
        NoPrevShell=.mht.url.

In your case this would be enough:

Code: Select all

NoPrevShell=pdf

XYplorer used to hang when I browse a folder containing PDF files. Unregistering the pdfshell.dll by running the following command solved the problem.

Code: Select all

regsvr32 /u "%CommonProgramFiles%\Adobe\Acrobat\ActiveX\pdfshell.dll"

Aha, interesting. What is/does pdfshell.dll?
