Just wanted to add to this conversation in case anyone else reading this wasn't able to get their previews to work. I was experiencing the same problem since the February 2025 update with files / images / videos not previewing properly in the Windows explorer preview pane. Even after re-synching and re-indexing all of my files, I was still having the issue. The only workaround I was able to find was to "opt out" of the latest update and revert to the old version.
Here is a link that tells you how to do that: https://help.dropbox.com/installs/dropbox-for-windows#How-to-optout-of-the-Dropbox-for-Windows-update
I did have to re-synch everything again, but all of my files seem to be previewing as normal now.
Hopefully Dropbox can get this issue sorted in the future, but as of now I will be sticking with the old version. Hope this helps someone!
