    Previews for images (thumbnails) are gone in explorer.


    All of a my preview for my images are gone...

    I went to Google and looked up some possible solutions.

    In explorer under view/options under View "Always show icons never thumbnails" is unchecked.
    I also tried to choose "Restore Defaults" from there as well with no luck. Yes, I closed and re-opened
    explorer after the change.

    I under went under Control Panel/System/Advanced/System Properties/Performance and
    made sure "Save Taskbar Thumbnail Previews" was checked as well as "Show thumbnails instead of icons"
    was also checked.

    Does anyone else have any other suggestions?

    Any help appreciated. Windows 10 Pro 64 bit.

    :)

    Snipping tool in Windows 10 saves files with .PNG extension instead of .png

    This is a problem for Windows explorer as it doesn't recognise the .PNG extension and the image preview doesn't work.

    If I rename the files to .png then picture preview (thumbnails) in windows explorer works.

    Can I change the default?

    windows 10 explorer thumbnails do not display correctly in preview

    Very often the thumbnail (preview image) does not show the view presented when the image is viewed in an editor eg using MS Office 2010 viewer.

    I can't find a 'refresh thumbnail' option in Win Explorer

    I have spent an hour or so trawling the web for solutions. These included 1) deleting all Thumbs.db files, and 2) stopping the explorer process, clearing the thumbnail database and re-starting explorer.

    Explorer seems content to ignore all this and to continue displaying the thumbnails incorrectly.

    Where have my image thumbnails gone?: When I opened folders such as Pictures, Camera Roll, Screenshots the images within used to be instantly previewed with thumbnails.
