Vista - view folder files in photos suddenly stopped working

09-15-2007

hi there

I have several folders with media files in them (videos). up till lately
when I chose the "very large" "large" or "medium" thumbnails i could see some
picture taken from the file. in the last couple of days i can still see these
pictures in my old files but any new file i am adding just gives me a general
thumbnail (showing the file type) and not a picture from the file.
any idea why this thing has happend? and how to fix it?

thnaks

You could try this. Go to Start Menu\Programs\Accessories\System Tools and
open Disk Cleanup. In Disk Cleanup, put a checkmark next to Thumbnails.
Click on OK.

This will rebuild your Thumbnails database.
