    How to Rebuild Icon Cache, Clear Thumbnail cache in Windows 10


    Hi,


    I am facing problem as the Progress Bar keep running green after the optional windows update of KB455094 though I have deleted it but the problem remain same. Even Explorer can not be open unless I reboot computer whenever I have to access folders in Explorer.


    Therefore, I thought How to Rebuild Icon Cache, Clear Thumbnail cache in Windows 10, may be that can solve the problem. Because Desktop Icon mostly get white no image Jpeg or SVG file no thumbnail.


    So, question is,

    Is it safe and how to Rebuild Icon Cache, Clear Thumbnail cache in Windows 10?


    Thank you very much in advance.

    :)

    Thumbnail cache and icon cache rebuilding after a feature update?

    I was curious about the thumbnail cache and icon cache. Do these rebuild themselves after a feature update? I have a small issue with some icons. It so insignificant that I won’t bother manually rebuilding the icon cache but just wondered if a feature update forces something like this seeing as it already returns some windows 10 settings to default (such as system restore being off by default)

    thanks
    Wayne
