  1. PNG Images Thumbnail/ Icon Shows Black Background Instead Of White


    I'm a digital artist and work with images on a daily basis.

    An issue I'm having is that whenever I save a PNG picture, the thumbnail / icon would have the picture and a solid black backgroud.

    This makes it hard to see the picture especially since 99% are mainly black lines and makes it extremely hard to work with.


    Things I tried:

    Updating the drive.

    Cleaning up files via disk cleanup


    I tried googling up more results but a majority of them are just disk cleanup, which I tried.

    After 10 minutes, the issue reappears slowly, picture after picture.


    Any help is appreciated!

    :)

    White and Black Thumbnails for when the background is black or white?

    Is it possible to get white thumbnails for the windows phone when the background is black? (and vice-versa)

    If not will it be possible in the future?

    Cheers

    Matt

    Blank Thumbnails on Taskbar and Paper white images icon

    Hi, After the recent update 1709 -- (The fall update I think) I've encounter issues with thumbnail previewer. I does not show thumbnail images but default icon instead

    it wasn't my first time I've encountered this, It happened same thing on every updates. So knew I'd need to rebuild icon and thumbnail cache once again so I following this steps...

    Rebuild Icon Cache in Windows 10 Customization Tutorials
    Clear and Reset Thumbnail Cache in Windows 10 Customization Tutorials
    After Creators Update 2 thumbnails cache keeps auto-deleting Solved - Windows 10 Forums

    After few restart, it did not solve my issues issues, It did not rebuild cache but went for worst. Now I got I got a blank icon/thumbnails on taskbar (left of screen) and it seem to happen only on windows store app (i.e. calendar, mail, photo previewer and etc..) not the third party programs.

    I also have issues with images (almost most image format) showing paper white thumbnails, instead of previewer or default icon.

    I cannot fathom how this happen. I've spend hours goggling for solution, done many different methods on rebuilding icon and reboot pc 50+ times. Went through recovery and rollback version. sfc /scannow DISM. virus screening, disk cleaning and etc none of it detect my issues and its driving me nuts.
    Instead of having to reset windows and reinstall many of 3rd parties program again I was hoping there are solution. Would anyone by any chance know what the issues are? Thanks in advance.

    Black background on thumbnails. i need it to be white

    ok so i have a digitizing software that displays the design icons as thumbnails, most of my icons have the white background, but some of them are changing it to a black background? does anyone know how i can fix this please? i have over 85,000 designs and
    to keep clearing the cache and letting them reload takes days and days only for the thumbnail problem to happen again? not sure if you could also help me on how i could get them all to load a lot quicker, i have been doing it folder by folder. i have added
    a couple of screenshots of what is happening, its in a lot of my folders. You will notice that a couple of the folder have a "D"icon on them, that is the digitizing software and that is what i will see until i go through and load all of the thumbnails again!
    this is why i am also asking is there a quicker way to load multiples at once? Thanks in advance KK (first screenshot is inside the folders, second screenshot is looking at the actual folders in the drive. notice not all the folders have black background
    thumbnails)
