Preview/Reading Pane Problem

[Guest]

My Preview/Reading pane in Windows Explorer is broken all of a sudden. I'm
not certain, but I think this coincided with my uninstallation of Office 2007
Beta and installation of Office 2007 Home & Student Trial edition last night.

Now, when I click on any file that the preview/reading pane supports, it
just shows a completely blank screen. No matter how long I wait, it just
shows a blank box.

What can I do?

Hi Seamus,

Open Outlook 2007. From the Tools menu, select "Trust Center". Select "Attachment Handling". Click "Attachment and Document Previewers".

Is the dialog empty, or does it display correctly the list of shell Preview handlers installed in the system?

This is not about outlook, I'm talking about Windows Vista's preview pane in
Windows Explorer.

I know. Preview *handlers* are common.
