Not sure if this works with Windows, but it does on my Mac
Just recently, this happened, by accident and I am loving it.
I was on a file in the Finder and I hit the spacebar - a large sized preview of the file came up. Hit the spacebar again, and it closed
That wasn't the best part of this discovery - it works on psd files where instead of the little picture showing, a psd icon is in my file list
(Not sure what I did differently that on some of my psd's I can see the project and on some I get only an icon, but it has been a pain to deal with)
I have had a Mac for 10 years and a PC for 30 years and I don't remember if I've ever known this -
I've always had to double click the file to open it in Preview.
I know this sounds like a small thing, but I am often looking through my scrapbook pages and need to see more detail than the tiny icon...
this spacebar trick is so much easier than Preview when I'm jumping from file to file
