Hello everyone,
I tried to upgrade from NX 8.5 to NX 9, but our Window server is not up to date, so we cant run NX 9. Anyway after uninstall NX 9 i lost ability to use this function(please see attached) in window explore. my Pc is running by Window 7.Sometime i want to view picture of file in extra large icons before open it up.
Does anyone know how to get this back?

Thank you for your help.

Jims

Yes, unfortunately when you uninstall NX it will end this behavior. You'll need to install NX again to get it back. There might be a way to 'hack' Windows to make it work without doing a full install, but I don't know how to do it. Perhaps someone else knows if there's a way.

Thanks to all for the advice and suggestions.
 
What you do is go Add-remove programs, find NX in the list, select and press the Repair option.
I had exactly the same issue two days ago after uninstalling the NX10 Beta. Fixed.

Regards,
Tomas
