Microsoft released a RAW WIC Codec Pack today. Being WIC codecs, any programs that use WIC (like Windows Photo Viewer or Live Photo Gallery) should automatically be able to read the supported file formats. This should include Explorer thumbnails -- though hopefully embedded previews can be used when available and sensible.

Available in both 32-bit and 64-bit editions. (That's right, Canon & Nikon users! )

Supported Formats:

Canon: EOS 1000D (EOS Kiss F in Japan and the EOS Rebel XS in North America), EOS 10D, EOS 1D Mk2, EOS 1D Mk3, EOS 1D Mk4, EOS 1D Mk2 N, EOS 1Ds Mk2, EOS 1Ds Mk3, EOS 20D, EOS 300D (the Kiss Digital in Japan and the Digital Rebel in North America) , EOS 30D, EOS 350D (the Canon EOS Kiss Digital N in Japan and EOS Digital Rebel XT in North America), EOS 400D (the Kiss Digital X in Japan and the Digital Rebel XTi in North America), EOS 40D, EOS 450D (EOS Kiss X2 in Japan and the EOS Rebel XSi in North America), EOS 500D (EOS Kiss X3 in Japan and the EOS Rebel T1i in North America), EOS 550D (EOS Kiss X4 in Japan, and as the EOS Rebel T2i in North America), EOS 50D, EOS 5D, EOS 5D Mk2, EOS 7D, EOS D30, EOS D60, G2, G3, G5, G6, G9, G10, G11, Pro1, S90

BTW anyone having issues , you probably want the amd64 version (which is MS speak for windows 64bit), as opposed to the x86 version which is the 32bit one..
