What is the Properties viewer?

The Properties Viewer is used to provide extra information about selected files from within the Asset Browser or the Project Explorer. The Properties Viewer can also generate instant previews for REDengine texture and mesh files.

Ensure Show File Preview is enabled within Settings if previews are not working.
