  1. Thumbnail preview not showing document title, can this be changed?


    In most applications, if you have more than one file open and you hover over the application icon in the taskbar, you will see the name of the file on the top of the thumbnail preview. However, my client is using an application that displays the full name of the application, and then the filepath to the document. Because she has multiple files open at once, she is finding it difficult to navigate between them. Is there any way of changing this behavior, or is a problem with the application itself? Many thanks for your help in advance!


    Best,


    Marcus

    Always show titles on taskbar thumbnails?

    Another route you could take is 'List Only View':

    JPEG Thumbnails NOT showing In Windows 10

    Hello,

    I have a very unique issue. I am unable to view jpegs in two capacities.

    1. can ONLY see icons and NOT thumbnails
    2. unable to see thumbnail preview in preview pane
    3. I CAN see documents, spreadsheets and etc, I CANNOT see jpegs for some reason

    I have checked all settings and can confirm that:

    1. Always show icons, never thumbnails option is
      unchecked
    2. Display file icon on thumbnails option is checked
    3. Show preview handlers in preview pane is checked
    I have also tried:

    1. Restoring the default settings
    2. Restarted my computer
    3. Disabled and enabled the settings as a refresher
    4. Cleared cache
    5. Used Disk Cleanup to remove thumbnails
    6. Under the Performance section, I checked Save taskbar thumbnail previews and
      Show thumbnails instead of icons and clicked on Apply and
      OK to save changes.
    None of these have resolved the problem.

    I need some major help. Please, please, please, if you're out there! Please assist with this issue.

  4. Thumbnail preview not showing document title, can this be changed?

    Preview and thumbnails are not showing up in Windows Explorer, Adobe Acrobat X Pro.

    Hi Susanne,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    We understand your concern. The PDF Shell component in Adobe Reader allows you to see the thumbnails of PDF documents in Windows explorer. However, it seems Preview and Thumbnails of PDF files are disabled. Please follow steps mentioned below to enable
    the same.



    1. Launch Adobe Reader.
    2. Click on Edit in the menu bar and choose
      Preferences.
    3. Highlight General under Categories.
    4. Check the box behind Enable PDF thumbnail previews in Windows Explorer.

    You may also want to refer
