    Photo Icons in the Picture Folders

    Hi,

    Misconfigured view settings is on of the usual reasons why it is not displaying the actual photo. We suggest checking the settings of your folder to make sure it show the icons, instead of the thumbnail. Kindly follow the steps below to check it:

    • Open Picture folder.
    • Choose View tab at the top, then click the (Square icon) Options as shown on the picture below:

    • Click View tab, put a check mark on the box beside the
      Always show icons, never thumbnails. See picture below:

    • Close the folder, and check if you will be able to see the display picture for each icon.

    Kindly update us with the outcome.

  3. When I open My Picture folder, I can't preview any photo.

    When I open My Picture folder, I can't preview any photo. I just get the default icon. How can I see the photo without opening it? The file extensions are almost all .jpg

    I am using windows 10

    Photo Icons in the Picture Folders

    Does anyone know why I have some pictures folders that will not display the actual photo on the icons? These icons will only allow me to open 1 picture at a time. Normally when you open a picture folder and then select a picture icon you can just scroll
    from one picture to the next. I have to open each picture individually to see what it is.

    I do have some picture folders that the icons appear with the pictures displayed, and then other folders that have the white icon with blue mountain scene. These are the ones that I have to open up individually. I did just notice these folders are compressed.
    Does that impact the icons?

    Hopefully someone can help me. Thank you.
