Failed to preview MS/WPS Office files such as docx (Consider reporting this incident to author.)

[oxu118o]

Hi there,

Quicklook is useful, but I got an issue, hope you can help me.

I can preview pictures via quicklook and I installed plugin, but I could not preview MS/WPS Office such as docx. My Windows update is disabled so that I can share my printer in the internet with my colleague.

Expected behavior To preview office files directly.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS Version:[Windows 10 Pro]
• QuickLook Version: [3.6.11 from Windows Store] (3.7.1 could not be opened.)

Screenshots and Exception Log

Thank you so much! Ming Xu

I think writing down the content of C:\Users(username)\AppData\Roaming\pooi.moe\QuickLook\QuickLook.Exception.log or attatching the file will be very helpful.

Thank you Kim! Is this file?

It says the COM component is not registered. Could you check your Office installation? Which version you're using?

The same to me. The Office installation is office365 desktop

All right. I am using WPS office, the latest version: 11.1.0.11566-release. Thanks!

Oh one more thing, I think it was last year, I thought it might because I was using WPS Office, so I deleted it and used MS Office 2013 or 2010(I forget the version), but files could not be previewed either.

So it might be WPS Office has not registered those COM components currently. I have no way to debug it, so the only solution I would recommend is to use another Office viewer which does not depend on Office installation.

I also installed wps with office 365, Most likely caused by wps

I see, I don't know anything about COM components, but would like to continue to try MS Office in the future. Thanks for the suggestion, Pefei!
