Viewer Pane no longer displays text, .bat files

My viewer pane is not displaying anything other than a square box for simple text files, batch files etc. Win 11 PC. However Photos/videos display ok. Works ok on Win 10 laptop.

Is the Text plugin turned on in Preferences / Viewer / Plugins?

Are the files really large, or containing non-text data?

That was a close one !

I was using my laptop to check the viewer plugins and then realised that the PC not laptop has issue.

Anyway, maybe for the best because there is a much shorter list on PC, no textfile thumbnails and no text is available to check on PC.

I'm using the same version of DO on both laptop and PC 13 10.3.

Looks like a lot of the DLLs are missing from that machine. Re-running the installer should fix it.

So. I download DO and reinstall ?

I have the 13.1 that I got when I purchased ver. 13, will I use that ?

Or do u mean a Windows reinstall?

As far as I know I didn't have that issue in DO 12.

The problem isn't Opus 12 vs 13, it's that your Opus install is missing half the plugin DLLs for some reason.

Download the installer and run it over your existing installation.

Thanks Leo. That did it. Delay in getting back to you, I only saw your reply late last night.

Happy days.

I'll make a separate post on the other issue.
