    Why can I not see CR3 RAW file thumbnail images in file explorer, when i used to be able to...


    Hi,

    I have just added a Canon EOS R to my quiver of cameras...and whilst I am loving it for many reasons I am finding the fact I cannot see the RAW thumbnails in file explorer a pain in the behind.

    When I download my images to my pc , I then need to cull the photos I do not like or need before then moving them to Lightroom to edit. I can see them fine in lightroom….but not in file explorer!

    Do I need a codec from Microsoft or Canon? I do not wish to pay for a 3rd party program to open them up, as I am unsure if that allows me to see them in File Explorer...as that is all I need. CR3's have been around for a while so why is there not a simple solution?...or is there one?

    Any help would be appreciated.

    :)

    New Canon RP file extension cr3 is not showing thumbnails in file explorer

    Hi Beth,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

    I understand that you are unable to preview thumbnails of CR3 files.

    The CR2 and CR3 requires additional Raw Image Extensions in order to display the thumbnails in File Explorer as well as in Photos App.

    Although, there are extensions available for CR2 and other formats (Raw
    Image Extension    ) in Microsoft Store, at the moment this does not support CR3 format.

    However, you can contact
    Canon Support     and check if there are any updated codecs for the format.

    Meanwhile, you may also make use of the
    Feedback Hub    , where you can provide feedback to Microsoft about Windows 10 and send suggestions to help us improve your Windows experience.



    Regards,

    New Canon RP file extension cr3 is not showing thumbnails in file explorer

    New Canon RP file extension cr3 is not showing thumbnails in file explorer. I have the updated firmware for my Canon camera, but after downloading to my computer and opening file explorer it shows Icons only and not a thumbnail of the picture. I have made
    sure that the "uncheck icons button and show thumbnails is correct in file setup, but the folder still does not show thumbnails. All other file extensions except cr3 show thumbnails. What do I need to do to get thumbnails to show for cr3 file extensions. Thank
    you in advance for any help.
