EPS files cant be preview on OS Monterey

This solution probably doesn't work for everyone, however it may help some people...My EPS's are all vector eps which I use in Adobe Illustrator. I simply changed the file suffix from ".eps" to ".ai" and the preview now works. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I'm sure Apple didn't mean to "make" you do anything. And you are correct, 12.1 does not fix the issue.

Yess, had to use this great idea today to find the file) Thank you so much by the way! God help them to fix this, but since they made airdrop, whole photoshop and other things work like ... ehm bad things - my hope is still not a big and stable one)))

That's a good question. They still seem to open in Preview but don't display in the Finder.

Send Apple a bug report from the feedback page.

I have the problem as well. Its since the update I can´t view any eps files.

Have this issue too, this makes my work inconvenient and i really need to downgrade or wait till this will be fixed...

Me too!

Me too. I have tow identical m1 imacs. One shows EPS previews in finder, one does not. Have submitted bug report.

Same issue. Still not fixed. Hard to work.

Nice idea, but i got hundreds of files )))

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

That's the best I've got!! its better than nothing! Lets hope Apple fixes it soon.
