    File Explorer - Some PDF's show thumbnail image, some don’t

    In Windows 10 File Explorer, I see thumbnails for a few of my pdf files but still see the generic Adobe pdf icon for most of them.

    • In Windows 10 folder options, the checkbox for “Always show icons, never thumbnails” is unchecked.
    • On the Adobe Reader preferences general tab, “Enable PDF thumbnails previews in Windows Explorer” is checked.
    • Adobe Acrobat is set as my default PDF viewer.
    • I have used Disk Cleanup to delete all my thumbnails to clear and rebuild the cache, yet the problem persists.
    Any suggestions on how I can see all the pdf icons as thumbnails?
    Windows 10 Pro, Version 1903, Build 18362.657
    Adobe Acrobat Reader DC (20.006.20034)

    I asked over in the Adobe Acrobat Reader forum a few days ago but have received no replies.

    No thumbnail for .JPG file, while thumbnail shows up for .jpg file

    Hello Andre,

    Thank you for the suggestions.

    Unfortunately, I have followed all your steps but the thumbnails still do not appear.

    This is really frustrating since I can see the thumbnail for a split second before it reverts to the default photo icon.

    Thumbnail support for Adobe Applications within Windows Explorer

    The OP doesn't want icons, they want to see thumbnails showing an image of the document contents for all the Adobe file types listed.
