Gets or sets a value indicating whether to open the file in associated viewer software when it is double-clicked.

## Syntax
 
```
public function getEnableFileViewer() {
}

public function setEnableFileViewer($value) {
}
```
 
### Property Value
 
Type: **boolean**
 
If `true`, the file is opened in the external file viewer by double-clicking. Otherwise, double-click causes nothing.
 
Default value is **true**.

## Remarks
 
If subfolders are shown ([FolderProcessingMode](https://www.aurigma.com/docs/us8/JA_P_P_Uploader_FolderProcessingMode.htm.md) is `show` or `upload`) double-clicking subfolders navigates to them regardless of the [EnableFileViewer](https://www.aurigma.com/docs/us8/JA_P_P_Uploader_EnableFileViewer.htm.md) value.
