Version 16.0 (16.0.0.255)
The F2 preview does not work.
I also tried re-assigning the preview key to Ctrl+F2 but that doesn't work either so I set it back to just F2 which still fails to work.
Even stranger;
With a .html file nothing happens
With a .css file it opens a new tab with prev0~.htm file
With a .js file it opens the file in notepad

Re: F2 preview not working
You say [F2] doesn't work. Do you get the same error if you click 'Tools' and then select 'Preview' ?

For me, yes, exactly the same, F2 doesn't work, Tools/Preview doesn't work.
The preview tab on the bottom of the editor page does work though, as does F9 (I have assigned to open Chrome)

Re: F2 preview not working
Does it consistently not work? ie, if you restart/reboot, etc. Is this with a fresh new document?
With the number of users using this software, this isn't a 'its not working at all' but 'its not working for you', so its trying to identify what is unusual on your system...
