    Video Thumbnails Don't Display Unless I Refresh Explorer Window

    Suggest: Move the problem video files to an external drive then disconnect it and reboot to test.

    Set folder options to not show thumbnails and use details view with preview pane enabled for all folders.

    Turn off Automatic Folder Template Discovery.

    For viewing multiple thumbnails use a third party image viewer instead of file explorer.

    Leave problem video files on external drive and try converting one or more of them to a different format then copy the converted files back to your HD to see if you get the same issue with the newly created files.

    Windows Explorer crashes and thumbnails problem

    Hi, I hope you can help me.
    Windows Explorer is no longer showing thumbnails on files played by Windows Media Player. I've run cmd and regsvr32 shmedia.dll and regsvr32 shimgvw.dll. That seemed to solve the problem...but it created a different one. Now when I try to open a folder on an external hard drive it crashes. I read in an old 2008 post it was an avi file causing the problem and suggested the run cmd regsvr32 /u shmedia.dll. That solved the opening problem but recreated the thumbnail problem. Any help to achieve both functions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    Windows Explorer Issues getting very frequent Thumbnails / Copy Paste / Folder Refresh

    Thumbnails frequently fail to refresh


    Win 10 File Explorer thumbnails frequently do not refresh after changes such as cropping in an image editor. Despite much googling I've still not found a reliable fix.

    For example, Falcon-12 has an AR of 16:9, despite itswide thumb, which looks identical to that of the 2:1 alongside it.
