Vista - Vista not generating thumbnails

08-05-2009

It can be as easy as performance settings.

1. right click on "my computer"
2. select properties
3. select "Advanced system settings"
4. select "Advanced" tab
5. select button under "performance settings"
6. check if the checbox "show thumbnails instead of icons" is checked.

kind regards,
Ryan

worked. but then you have to open sysWOW64\explorer.exe every time to
generate the thumbnail, and then you can normally view them

try to get a codec that is for windows x64 if you are using one
