    Folder Photos: Showing Thumbnail Photos Rather Than IrfanView Icons ?


    Hello,

    I have a Folder on my Desktop in which
    I have placed many photos.

    The listing shows up just fine, and if I click on one of them, it opens perfectly.
    No problems.

    But, the listing in the Folder only shows a small IrfanView icon for each of them, and then a name or number.

    Any way to have the listing show small thumbnails of the actual pix's, rather than just
    an IrfanView icon for each ?

    Thanks,
    Bob

    :)

    Picture Thumbnails

    Upgraded to Windows 10. When I open a folder with pictures in it, I get only icons and no thumbnails. This applies to photos in folders I use to store pictures. In the standard Photos app, those pictures DO show a thumbnail. "Always show icons, not thumbnails"
    is NOT checked. Anyone have a solution?

    Thanks.

    moving photos from camera to PC

    So you're saying that you changed the View setting for your camera's folder back to List and it had no effect on Photos? Yet Photos was "fixed" when you changed that folder to show thumbnails (icons)? I suppose it could be a coincidence but be prepared
    to change it back if Photos stops showing thumbnails.

    Open File Explorer > top right, click Options > click Change folder and search options > click View at top > UN-check the box " Always show icons, never thumbnails" > OK when done.
