I didn’t figure out how this would work in 64-bit Windows 7. Any advice?

If you have the Adobe CS suite you will have Adobe Bridge. This can preview the .ai files. Also, you can create a thumbnail PDF of all your .ai files and save it into the directory which contains the .ai files.
Using Adobe Bridge to create pages of thumbnails works really well for TIFFs, JPGs etc.

the issue is clear. they want that we use this f. bridge which has not even a proper search modul. its a joke and if the first open source clone comes up i will change from adobe this dummf… They cant even bring flash to work for mobiles and now not even a simple file preview. what a great company. for waht the programmers get their money?

Works well on Win XP SP3 & AI CS3, though some thumbnails need to be refreshed manually to appear (my AI files are usually pretty big). Gonna save me lots of time and stress. Thanks!!
