The easiest way to preview pictures is to open the Windows Explorer (Windows key + E) select a picture and then press:

ALT + P (for preview, very easy to remember)

This will enable the preview window inside the explorer. Unfortunately, Windows 7 does not support that many files. If you want to preview more files in Windows 7 other than pictures, you will need a special software like ExplorerView. ExplorerView allows you to preview PSD (Photoshop) files, PDF files, TIFF files, Word documents, FLV files and other files in the Windows 7 explorer.

Preview PDF files in Windows Explorer

As for previewing PDF files in Windows 7, Adobe’s PDF Reader 9.3 now supports it (even on Windows 7 64-bit). Older versions of Adobe Reader do NOT support previewing PDF files in Windows Explorer, Outlook, etc.

So, download Adobe Reader 9.3 and you should be ready to go!
