I am experiencing the same issue as that described by this user. I have not tried uninstalling or disabling One Drive; and I question that that is a solution. I would like to hear back from you, as it is a real pain -- and I believe some Dropbox issue. P.S., the same files in One Drive show up repeatedly in the preview window!

I am replying to myself to finish the description of the issue. The problem of not appearing in the window after the first shot, is only with respect to Word files a created a year or so before. The problem does not exist with respect to newly created Word files. Yes, I have tried saving the Word file to a new version; but it does not solve the issue. Any solutions, I would love to hear. It interferes with work, as the side window is a tremendous time savor!
