    Photo icons


    I upgradred from Vista to Win 7. Then I managed to mess things up BIG TIME. Anyway, I had to do a clean re-install of Vista to re-upgrade to 7.

    Now my photo icons are all generic when they used to preview the photo. Not good as I rely totally on picking photos by look not file name.

    Can anyone help me get my preview icons back?

    Thanx,

    Hello Fog Mk, and welcome to Seven Forums.

    Double check to make sure that you have thumbnail previews enabled, and that you have Windows Photo Viewer set as the default program with all if it's associations set to it as well in Default Programs.

    Hope this helps,
