    How can i change the PDF previewer in preview pane in file explorer?


    I have a problem with the PDF preview pane Opened by Microsoft Edge WebView2; I see this program is presented when I select the file. The Microsoft Edge WebView2 is a prolonged response in the preview pane. So.....How can i change the Microsoft Edge WebView2 to Foxit Reader PDF in the preview pane? It is much faster than the Microsoft Edge WebView2.Thx

    :)

    • Open File Explorer.
    • Tap on View tab.
    • Click Preview Pane to view/hide it.

  4. How can i change the PDF previewer in preview pane in file explorer?

    pdf preview in Windows 10 file explorer

    I have been using "preview pane" in file explorer forever. However, for some unknown reason, the preview pane for pdf files have become very small, to the point where the pdf file preview pane is too small and unreadable. preview pane for all other files
    appears to be ok (large enough as before). this is only affecting pdf files.

    I have uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe reader.

    I am looking for suggestions to get back to where the preview pane of pdf files is as large as before
