Some plugins from Total Commander work: https://www.ghisler.com/plugins.htm
I use PDFVIEW for viewing PDF files within WinNC
You will also need to install Ghostscript (a free download) https://www.ghostscript.com/download/gsdnld.html

I´ve installed Ghostscript x32 AND x64 but WinNC says that no Ghostscript is installed. I also want to use PDFVIEW, but i dont get it to work.

Could be that something changed in a later release of Ghostscript. I have version 9.52 of Ghostscript and the PDFVIEW is version 1.09. I'm running 64-bit Windows 10. Note that you must install the PDFVIEW files in the WinNC plugin folder. You can locate it from within WinNC under Options, Tools, Viewer Options and then click on the Open Plugin Folder button. Looks like another user is having an issue with PDFVIEW using Total Commander from this post: https://www.ghisler.ch/board/viewtopic.php?p=399963. I believe the versions I have of Ghostscript and PDFVIEW are still available. You may give those a try. Hope this helps, good luck.
