You can install the TC ULister plugin into the Universal viewer.
This way you can view almost everything from it.

Mal angenommen, du drückst Strg+F, wählst die FTP-Verbindung (mit gespeichertem Passwort), klickst aber nicht auf Verbinden, sondern fällst tot um.

Guys: is the right "TC ULister plugin" this one?
"uLister 4.0.0" by " Egor Vlaznev" (As a today-nube I cannot post the url)

If so, any directions listed in this forum or online on how to install this TC ULister plugin into the Universal viewer?

Thanks again, Jim

Yes, this is the right one.
You have to add the Oracle viewer files according to the readme.
The installation of a plugin in Universal Viewer is of course
Options / Configure plugins

I assume that the "Oracle reader files" to add are contained in the zip (that worked fine).

The "Readme.txt" in opened zip folder as pertinent states:

1-4 n/a > ( I think)
" 5. Configuration
Use ulister.ini in plugin or %COMMANDER_INI% or %APPDATA% dir.
Parameters:
"noloadtypes" allow disable plugin for some formats(see formats.txt).
"onlyloadtypes" allow enable plugin only for some formats.
"nopreviewtypes" allow disable create preview for some formats.
"onlypreviewtypes" allow enable create preview only for some formats.
"keepinmemory" allow keep Outside In Viewer library in memory, it reduce document load time but increase memory consumption (Default enable).
"optionsdir" contain folder path for save settings(Environment variables now supported)
6. Installation
Viewer Technology: vw-8-3-7-win-x86-32.zip(or latest version if available) or vw-8-3-7-win-x86-.zip(for x64 plugin version) from
[ ORACLE URL OMITTED ], you need accept license and register. And copy "redist" folder to plugin folder."

Hope this makes sense. Not used to this kinda routine(s) myself. Looks like several more downloads and actions are needed? This the right "Readme" you think?

I am lost, need to say. Not the usual downlod-opening routine, i have ever engaged in.

Here Hope for the best! Jim

What is so complicated ?
You can only use the x86 version of the Ulister and Oracle files
because the Universal Viewer is an x86 program.

Store the contents of the ULister.zip into an Ulister sub-dir
of your Universal Viewer plugin dir.

Add all files from the Redist folder of the Oracle viewer archive
into the same dir.

Use Options / Configure plugins in the Universal Viewer
and add the Ulister plugin.
