Cannot Preview DWFX as Thumbnail or in Preview Pane in Windows 7

All,

 

I am having trouble getting DWFX files to show up in Windows Explorer in Windows 7.  It would be really handy to be able to preview these DWFX files either with a thumbnail or with the preview pane.  Inventor files and AutoCAD files work fine, but for some reason, the DWFX files do not preview for me.  Some other users I work with seem to be able to preview them intermittently, which seems kind of odd that it doesn't work all of the time.  I am just creating this DWFX preview by exporting through the Application Menu.  Has anyone run into this before and can offer any advice?  If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.  Hope all is well and have a most blessed day!

 

Peace,

Pete

No preview thumbnail for DWFX (Would also be okay with a Preview Pane image)

Please give a kudos if helpful and mark as a solution if somehow I got it right.

Pete,

I assume you mean .dwf files.  With that, currently they cannot be viewed. 

See this thread.  http://forums.autodesk.com/t5/DWF-Viewer/No-DWF-thumbnails-in-Windows-Explorer-Windows-7/td-p/277364...
