Windows 10: Preview Pane for HEIC files in File Explorer?

Windows 10, Build 18363.

Should I be able to use the 'Preview Pane' option in File Explorer for HEIC files?

It works fine for .jpg files.

However, when I click an HEIC file the preview pane just stays blank.


Thanks for any help or advice!
