graphic icons not showing content?

Post by ushere »

have just installed win 7 (64bit) on my dual boot system alongside win7 rc (64bit).

in rc my pdf 'icons' show the content, in rtm pro, they show a simple pdf icon?

any suggestions where to look for a solution?

many thanks for a great program.....

Which installers did you use? MSI or EXE?

Please try to run

regsrv32 C:\Programs Files\Tracker Software\Shell Extensions\XCShInfo.dll

tried changing, but still no response:

a. there is NO 'Shell Extensions\XCShInfo.dll' in C:\Program Files\Tracker Software.

b. i think i downloaded an .exe file.....

Looks like you didn't install Shell Extensions. In this case you will have no preview or thumbnails for PDF files into explorer.

Please try to find XCShInfo.dll into tracker installation folder "C:\Program Files\Tracker Software"

If it is absent, please install it
