Cannot View AI Files in Windows 11 Preview

I am very well versed in all things IT - I know how to turn on preview, map extensions, turn on PSD preview in Adobe Acrobat, etc.  In Windows 10, everything worked great.

 

In Windows 11, nothing works.  I am unable to view AI or PSD files in Windows Preview outwside of Bridge and Bridge is extremely slow, cacches terribly, and is not viable.  I have thousands of AI files and I need preview to work.

Everything else works - all versions of an image, SVG, etc.  However EPS, AI, and PSD files will not preview either in FIle Explorer or via the File Explorer windows opened within Illustrator.

 

Please help!

 

Thank you!
