Scroll PDF Files within Explorer

Community Beginner ,
Mar 09, 2024 Mar 09, 2024

Hi,

Is there a feature within acrobat that allows you to scroll through individual pdf files within file explorer without having to open a file then close then back to explorer and then open and so on! 

it is quite annoying when viewing 100's of files?

if not can anyone reccomend a software that does this.

thank you in advance.

Hi there,

 

Hope you are doing well and sorry to keep you waiting.

 

You need to enable the preview pane in MS Windows Explorer as shown in the screenshot below to preview the PDF files without opening them.

 

 

 

Regards

Amal
