+## Description
+
+When a file is selected in the [Kendo UI for Blazor FileManager](https://docs.telerik.com/blazor-ui/components/filemanager/overview) and then deleted, the Preview Pane may crash. This typically occurs because the component tries to access the now non-existent file, causing an error.
+
+This knowledge base article also answers the following questions:
+- How to handle Preview Pane errors in Kendo UI for Blazor FileManager?
+- What to do if deleting a file causes the Preview Pane to crash?
+- How to prevent crashes when a file is deleted in the FileManager?
+
+## Solution
+
+To avoid Preview Pane crashes after deleting a selected file, follow these steps:
+
+1. Add logic to check if the selected file exists before updating the Preview Pane.
+2. If the selected file does not exist, reset the Preview Pane or display a placeholder message.
+
+Here is an example of how to handle this in the FileManager:
+
+```csharp
+@using Telerik.Blazor.Components
+
+<TelerikFileManager @bind-SelectedItems="SelectedItems" />
+<TelerikFileManagerPreview>
+    @if (SelectedItems != null && SelectedItems.Any() && FileExists(SelectedItems.First().Path))
+    {
+        <div>
+            <p>File Name: @SelectedItems.First().Name</p>
+            <p>Path: @SelectedItems.First().Path</p>
+        </div>
+    }
+    else
+    {
+        <p>No file selected or file no longer exists.</p>
+    }
+</TelerikFileManagerPreview>
+
+@code {
+    private List<FileManagerItem> SelectedItems { get; set; }
+
+    private bool FileExists(string filePath)
+    {
+        // Implement logic to check if the file exists in storage.
+        // Return true if the file exists; otherwise, return false.
+        return false;
+    }
+}
+```
+
+### Explanation:
+- The `@bind-SelectedItems` binds the selected file(s) in the FileManager.
+- The `FileExists` method checks whether the file still exists in the storage.
+- The Preview Pane conditionally displays content only if the selected file exists.
