  2. File Explorer not showing Extra large icons

    Hi,

    The icons might be set to appear in medium or small icons. For you to get extra large icons, follow these steps:

    • Open File Explorer.
    • Right-click in an empty space and navigate to View > Extra large icons.

    Let us know how it goes so we can further assist you.

    Regards.

    Windows Explorer crash when select "Extra Large Icons" and "Large Icons"

    Hello, thank you for reply.

    Hmm.. i try all of these steps but the problem still occured. I through that this problem only happened everytime it happens to be icon option. Windows Explorer keeps crashing everytime selecting "Extra Large Icons" and "Large Icons" in Views Layout option. But there're no such problem on select other Layout option. Is there a solution about this?
