Windows 10: Not Showing Images for 16bit tiff files

I have read the threads re: not seeing tiff Thumbnails in Windows Explorer. I have cleared the cache, all temp files, restarted over and over again. These are mostly 16bit tiff photos. It displays jpg's fine. It happened out of the blue after a re-start when Outlook slowed down. All of a sudden it would not display tiff thumbnails. The icons are there along with the titles but not the image. I also Saved a copy or Saved As from Photoshop and did have the thumbnail box checked by default. Any ideas? This is a major inconvenience.

converting multiple tiff files into one

Hello SNOHOMY,

Open the Word file and then click File->Print from the application menu.

Choose TIFF Image Printer 11.0 from the list of printers and then click the Print button.

Enter the location and filename for the TIFF file and then click Save.

Open the JPEG image and click File->Print from the application menu.

Choose TIFF Image Printer 11.0 from the list of printers and then click the Print button.

Enter the same filename, choose TIFF Multipaged (*.tif) and check Append to file, then click Save.

Now open the Excel spreadsheet and click File->Print from the application menu.

Enter the same filename, choose TIFF Multipaged (*.tif) and check Append to file, then click Save.

Now all 3 files are merged together in a single TIFF file.

You can see it in a video



Hope it helps, have a good day

 

Customising the Different Image Files on Windows 10

Hello Guys,

I am trying to customise the various image files (bmp, gif, jpeg, jpg, png, svg, tif and tiff) on Windows 10 and noticed the following:

1. the bmp, gif, png, jpeg, jpg and svg files are all programmed to use the same icon. Changing the icon for one will result in the other image files using the same new icon; and
2. the tif and tiff files cannot be changed.

The way I do it is I use File Type Manager to locate the default icons key for each file in the registry and change the icon from there (this is because File Type Manager hangs whenever I try to change an icon using it).

Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I could go about:

1. customising the different image files to use different icons for each one; and
2. changing the tif and tiff image file icons?

Much appreciate any guidance / advice.

Thank you,
Andrew
