I do get folder previews but I do have KDE Standard installed, although I do not use KDE. Perhaps there is a support library or app required.

Did you use MX package Installer> Popular Apps>Desktop Environment and install KDE Standard? If so I have gone as far as I can for a solution.

I tried MX package Installer> Popular Apps>Desktop Environment and install KDE Standard and tried from Mx stable repo. Not working previews. Maybe it because I running on Virtual Machine? Or maybe I must install different Dolphin? I installed Dolphin 16.12.3

Dolphin itself can be installed on the MX Test Repo tab of the Package Installer--or maybe you know that already.

I doubt it is because of the virtual machine. I am using the same Dolphin version. Just for verification, since you installed KDE Standard and it may have overwritten the original configuration, try going through the same steps with the Control config you did before.

So what exactly I must to do?
1) install kde standart which one and from which repo?
2) install dolphin from MX repo test?
3) install kio-extras from MX or from Synaptic sudo apt-get install ffmpegthumbs mplayerthumbs ffmpegthumbnailer kio-extras ?

There is Dolphin in Flatpack repo but it has large mb.

I would just do the dolphin config on the one you have now over again. Control>General, Preview tab and check the box next to Folders.
