FAQ

Do I need to restart Explorer after installing?

Yes. After install, restart Windows Explorer (Task Manager → Windows Explorer → Restart) or reboot. Already-open Explorer windows may not pick up the preview handler until you do.

How do I install after purchase?

After checkout, check your email for your EXPR license key and installer download link. Run the installer and paste your license key when prompted during setup. Restart Explorer afterward.

Is there a free trial?

No. HEIC Explorer Preview requires purchase before install from our website. We offer a 30-day money-back guarantee. The full HEIC Converter app includes Explorer preview and a 15-file conversion trial.

How do I open the full preview window?

Right-click a HEIC or HEIF file → HEIC Explorer PreviewPreview. This opens the same preview window as the full HEIC Converter app (metadata, EXIF, copy image).

How is this different from HEIC Converter?

HEIC Explorer Preview only adds Explorer thumbnails and preview — it does not convert files. HEIC Converter ($19.95) includes preview plus bulk conversion to JPG, PNG, WebP, and PDF.
