This is strange, The preview pane in explorer was working fine until I
restarted. The folder view works, but the favorite links are gone. Show
Preview and Filters are selected in folder options. Help.
 
It is checked. Favorite Links Says (Empty)
Usually Documents, Music and others go there, but the word Empty appears
instaed.
 
Try right clicking in the empty Favorite Links pane and selecting Restore
Default Common Places.

As to why they disappeared, I don't know. If it happens again and you're
sure it wasn't something you did, file a bug. using the Feedback link on
your desktop.
 
I figured it out . If you delete the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/LINKFILE ISShortcut
entry in the registrty will remove the arrows on desktop icons, but removing
the entry,
ISShortcut, will destroy the Prewiew pane Favorite Links.
