Michael, there isn't enough information here for us to understand the issue.
The screenshot shows previews for LO documents in the file explorer.
Please provide precise steps to reproduce.

I know there are preview thumbnails, but what is needed is to be able to view a document in the preview pane, without having to open it in libreoffice

Your screenshot is showing a lack of functionality in Windows file explorer. The .odt files do contain a thumbnail image. Windows file explorer should implement the preview. Please request it from Microsoft.
