Preview pane

I want to know if it is possible to get a preview pane on window explorer.
I'm using Windows Vista Basic. Thanks in advance.

Hi James,

Yes, you should be able to. Click on "Organize" -> "Layout" -> "Preview Pane" inside a Windows Explorer window.

Well the reason I post this question was because I can not find preview pane
under layout. I only see menu bar, search pane and navigation pane

Ah, ok James,

Open Folder Options and make sure that "Show preview handlers in preview pane" is checked. You should have Preview Pane available in Layout afterwards.

Thats strange, "Show preview handlers in preview pane" is already checked.
So I unchecked it and rechecked it but theres still no preview pane.
