  2. Thumbnail view setting not saved on burned CD (Windows 10)

    I'm burning some folders of files and mostly photos to a CD-R using Windows 10 File Explorer. The folders are set to display with thumbnails on my C: hard drive, but when I copy them to my D: drive (the CD drive), they appear as icons. Using the View tab,
    I change the main folder view to display thumbnails.

    At the top right, I select Options to get to Folder Options. As you can see, "Always show icons..." and "Display file icon on thumbnails" are unchecked. I even try clicking "Apply to Folders". I click OK or Apply. But no matter how I change the view
    to thumbnails, when I exit a folder and return, it reverts back to icons. How do I get the thumbnail view to be saved and be the default view on the burned CD?

    How do I change settings to always show photo thumbnails in every folder in Windows 10?

    In Windows 10, I'd like to always view thumbnails of images in Windows Explorer?

    I know how to view thumbnails when the folder opens with just a list but I'd like this to automatically be the default. Is this possible?

    Kind regards,

    How can I view thumbnail of images in folders and drives

    Sorry @Brink have one more thumbnail question and not sure if its a windows or Adobe Reader issue. Before when I had Win 7 all my adobe files showed an image and not the adobe symbol now they don't show the images just the symbol, Any way to fix? I did some searching in the issue and the only thing I could come up with was If you have a 64 bit system then that's just how it is... But I'm almost positive my PC I came from (One that motherbord got fried) was a 64 bit and it worked just fine.

    Thoughts?

    No problem.

    I've always found thumbnails for .pdf files to be sketchy at best for displaying properly. Sometimes they won't show until after you have opened the file.

    I did find THIS solution but haven't tried it. Reason being im running Win10 and I see Win7 was the last update but I was going to wing it.

    Have you ever tried it?

    I haven't tried them. I'd recommend to create a restore point before using them to be safe though.
