Explorer Preview pane Favorite Links (Empty)

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.

Click Organize > Layout and make Navigation Pane is checked.

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.
