Windows 10: PNG Icon overlays the video files thumbnail

Hi all,

Well, I have been researching in this (and other forums) and I still can't fix this. Actually in my Windows 10 there is a PNG icon overlaying the thumbnail of video files.
This happened after I just tried to change the default icon of VLC player, but now, all the Thumbnails are messed up.

What I have done so far:

1. cleared the thumbnail cache.
2. deleting the icon cache file.
3. uninstalling and then installing VLC again (deleting all user files and configurations)
4. Checking the default icon with File Type Manager. (all video files are using the VLC icon).
5. Searching for the Regedit value... and of course it's the same as File Type Manager.
6. Checked the thumbnails files to be sure that this trouble is caused by an icon overlap and not a bad rendering (in the thumbnails files every single video have it's thumbnail perfect, but in Windows Explorer they have that black icon over them).







So. Honestly, don't know what to do... any ideas? *Sad

N95 8GB - Video Center

The problem I've seen is that Video Center in V15 software can't handle large video files, it fails to create the thumbnail and it closes.

You can add a thumbnail for each video in Video Center to get around this.

To add a thumbnail just put a JPEG, PNG or GIF file named exactly as the video file in the same folder.

 

N95 8GB Video Centre Shutting Down

The workaround is to load a JPG PNG or GIF picture icon (small file 90 KB), named EXACTLY the same as the videos in the
My Videos folder where the videos are stored (or where ever the videos from video center are stored)
