Cant preview STL Files.

[Jolly]

Not sure what the best way to debug is: For STL files, thumbnails work in everything, (but not explorer).
Preview pane works in explorer, but not in everything. It shows the STL as text.

I've got show_preview_handlers_in_preview_pane=1

I have enabled the STL thumbnails in MS PowerToys.
This works for me in Explorer, Everything and Total Commander

Your %TEMP%\Everything Debug Log.txt can grow very large.

Please disable Tools -> Options -> Advanced -> debug_log



Please try capturing a debug log when showing an STL preview:

• After changing the above advanced setting, please restart Everything (File -> Exit)
• In Everything 1.5, from the Tools menu, under the Debug menu, click Start debug logging.
• Select a STL file with the preview pane shown.
• From the Tools menu, under the Debug menu, click Stop debug logging.
  ---This will open your %TEMP%\Everything Debug Log.txt in Notepad.
• Please upload this file to /bugreport

This log will show the registry key used by Everything to display the preview.



Could you please send your registry entries for STL files:

• From the Start menu, search for: regedit
• Right click Registry Editor and click Run as administrator.
• In the Registry Editor, navigate to:
  
  HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.stl
• From the File menu, click Export...
• Check Selected branch and choose a filename. (eg: stl.reg on the Desktop)
• Please upload this file to /bugreport
