PDF Preview not working in Windows 11
I am using the Dropbox App on my Windows 11 PC. I have the green check mark on the file, indicating that it is a local stored file. My issue is, is that the PDF does not preview in the Preview Wind...

Dropbox StaffHi bmayfield, thanks for bringing this to our attention.
Could you try marking the file as online-only and then local again to see if the file previews?
Keep me updated with any progress!
Jay, I went to the Main Folder of Dropbox and made ALL the files Local Files. Once that process completed, some files worked, while others did not. I later restarted the computer and opened the PowerToys app. Once in PowerToys, I turned the preview features on for .PDF and restarted the computer again. Once these task were completed, my files are now displaying in the side view window.
I am not sure which one of these 2 process corrected it, but as of now, it is working and I have no issues. If there are any other issues, I will re-post here.
