Windows 10: Not all photo thumbnail previews showing - Windows 10

basically only some files will show their previews and I've already tried resetting the thumbnail cache and checking if show thumbnails instead of icons was unchecked; which it wasn't. I've been having this issue for a while now and its been making it harder to find things as these files will not show up in preview; i have to actually open and go through them. help would be appreciated! thank you!!

Preview Pane for Images/Some Thumbnails/Photos not Working Only on OneDrive Folder

The preview pane and thumbnails as well as the Photos app are not working, but only on my OneDrive folder. It works fine on an exact copy of the same files that are not in the OneDrive synced folder structure (and known to Windows as being OneDrive).

• Open OneDrive Folder, navigate to photos directory
• Sony Raw images (.ARW) do not show thumbnails. (I have the Sony plug in installed)
• Double click on a raw file, Photos says "We can't open this file."
• Click on a jpeg file, and with preview window turned on, no preview appears
• Double click on jpeg file, opens fine in Photos, and then the preview window image appears

• Navigate to a directory that is not synced to OneDrive
• Sony Raw thumbnails show up fine. They also show up in the preview window.
• Double click on Raw file and Photos opens it up without problems

• Back to OneDrive photo directory
• Copy raw file to desktop
• Immediately the thumbnail appears and the file can be opened with Photos. The same file that it can't open from Explorer in the OneDrive directory

This is only happening on my desktop. My laptop is fine. Both same versions of Windows 10 Version 1709 OS Build 16299.19

 

Not all photo thumbnails showing.


Hi there chaps.

I have this problem with File Explorer. I have checked the box "Always show icons, never thumbnails"



But not all of the thumbnails are showing. I get a mixture of the "mountain" icon as well as some thumbnails.



I have tried to delete the thumbnail cache and nothing seems to work. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I could do? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Matt.

 

windows 10 photos app not showing thumbnail images

Hello,

I am having a problem where the photos on my system show up as icons instead of thumbnail previews like they used to in Windows 7. I am a help desk tech and I have checked all the folder settings within my system and I cannot get the photos to change from
being generic icons and show up as photo thumbnail previews. Can you please shed some light on this problem? I have googled this problem and I can see I'm not the only person having this problem but the only suggestions are to make certain I have the settings
correctly set which I do. Just to be clear this is not a problem I am having with anything to do with any app it is a system setting where I open the folder that contains my picture files and instead of seeing photo preview thumbnails I see generic looking
icons. I am talking just viewing the files inside a normal Windows file explorer folder window view.

Thank you....
