Remove preview pain from windows explore

[Pablo56]

This has only recently happened. I seem to have inhereted a preview pain in Windows explorer. I have scowered the internet an all I am told is to go to view and untick the prieview pain. All I can do is go between preview and Details. I can't get rid of the pain. I don't know what I did to get this pain in the neck.

TIA

Desmond.

Hi,
I have the same thing in my Explorer ! I don't think you can remove it !
But where is your problem with that ?

I have File Explorer in the Details View, went to View, clicked Preview pane then on the right clicked Preview to toggle show or hide.

RogerOver: Were is the problem with that? Well I will twll you. If I go to detauled view, I want to see all the atributes for that file including date created. I now have to widen my window to the full width of the screen to see the onformation I need. I don't need a preview pain. I can click on a file to open it if I need to.

Second. When I got the PC with Windows 11, It was not theire so it must be removable and I must have clicked on something to get it. It can be removed.

Found a registry hack here: https://www.thewindowsclub.com/disable-preview-pane-in-file-explorer-of-windows
But I haven't tested !

Actualy the resolution was a simple one. Right at the top and to the extreem right is the word Details. Clicking on this hides it. Simple realy. Thought it could have been pointed out. Maybe that should have been a drop down option as well.

CLOSED.

Sorry, my mistake, thought the image I posted pointed that out.
