‘preview pane’ button missing in Windows Explorer when using ‘save image as'

more options

Hello. I'm using Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit, and Firefox browser. When I want to save an image from the Internet, and right click on an image, it opens up what looks just like Windows Explorer. The problem is, the 'preview pane' button is missing, and I can therefore not get a large preview when using the details view, which I must use, because I have folders with many files to look through quickly. The images do show up properly in icons view. If I open up Windows Explorer by itself, it works properly, and I get the preview pane button.

On my older Windows XP computer, I had xplorer2lite open up when right-clicking on an image. That was a more convenient program for me to use. Is it possible to do that in Windows 7?

Thank you.

When you use Save Image As... Firefox displays a dialog to let you choose the location and file name for the save. Since the file is not yet saved in the location you're looking at, the Windows Explorer dialog can't display the new file yet.

I don't know if you can integrate a different dialog into Firefox's "Save ... As" features. Firefox calls Windows system functions, so probably that would be set outside of Firefox.

Is it helpful to right-click the image and choose View Image Info? That should highlight the image in the Page Info dialog with a preview and file information. ??
