    File Explorer not showing thumbnails

    Brink,

    Many thanks for you reply. I have done all the steps you suggested, but no change,

    When I open a folder containing photos, some open correctly but the vast majority open with thumbnails, but they very quickly get overwritten and you can not longer see the thumbnails.

    Are there any more suggestions?

    Accidently overwritten a Keyboard Layout, How to reset it?

    I accidently overwritten my Keyboard layout (French) with Keyboard Layout Manager, so now the French Keyboard layout is QWERTY while it's supposed to be AZERTY. I was wondering if I could reset it to it's original state or if there
    is something else I can do?

    Thanks in advance.

    Using Windows 10 Pro 64-Bit.

    I understand your concern in this regard.

    Follow the below mentioned steps and check if it helps you in fixing the issue.

    • Click Start button, type Control Panel
      and select the same from the list
    • Clicking Clock, Language, and Region, and then
      Language.

    • Now select the options against the language to which you need to change the keyboard layout

    • Under Input Method section, click Add a Input Method

    • Browse and select an AZERTY keyboard layout from the list. Remove the existing
      Input Method.
