  • Bug Preview in Outlook 2012 (32 bit) does not work

    Hi,

    I already uninstalled Foxit Reader completely (with Total Uninstall 6) and reinstalled it. But still I got the message that because of an error in file "C:\Program Files (x86)\Foxit Software\Foxit Reader\Shell Extensions\FoxitPDFInfo.dll.-101" there is no preview possible. Then I tried to install the previous build of FR but this was not possible without deinstalling the current version first.

    But until a view days ago the preview worked without problems so I really don't know what happend to it.

    Does anybody had the same problems and solved it or has an idea what to do?

    Hi Reiner,

    Please uninstall your existing Foxit Reader from 'Control Panel' then perform a re-installation and make sure that you've ticked 'Shell Extensions' during the installation. Please give it a try.

      Hi,

      o.k. like 2 days ago, but then I uninstalled FR with Total Uninstaller before, I uninstalled and installed FR again. And like last time the Shell and Browser extensions where activated during Installation, but the result is the same.

        The solution in Outlook is to go into Options > Trust Center > Trust Center Settings > Attachment Handling, then uncheck Turn off Attachment Preview.

        BTW, is your pc 64-bit?If yes, the preview function not works stable under 64-bit pc, but it will be fixed in next release 6.0.

          Hi,

          it is unchecked since years...

          Yes, it is a 64-bit System but MS Office 2010 is still 32-bit because of the Add-ons that still often not work with the 64-bit version. BTW, since at least yesterday, it is functioning again! I don't know why but as ever I clicked on a PDF attachment as I'm used to and it suddenly showed me the preview instead of the error.


          Happy greetings
