    File explorer: PDF's preview showing "INDEX OF" in network folders


    Hi,This issue started today at work on several computers on both Windows 11 and Windows 10. Could it be related to a recent Windows update? Pdf files and only PDF's previews aren't working in any network folders, Instead of showing the file preview it shows "INDEX OF:"Previews work normally for excel, word, etc.Weird stuff.

    :)
