    No thumbnails on D: partition?


    I know this should be simple but I can't figure it out.

    I have a 50gb partition that holds mostly video files. In Explorer they show the icon for their file type generated by KMPlayer (my default media player) but I cannot figure out how to go back to thumbnail view.

    I tried the View settings in Explorer choosing large icons. And in Organize>Folder Options choose to uncheck the box for "always show icons never thumbnails". But I can't get this drive to show thumbnails. The root folder and all subfolders show only KMP icons.

    What am I missing?

    Thanks!

    Go inside the folder, then use the view settings to change.

    Hi,thanks for the reply.

    Inside the folder is where I have tried to make the changes. All View options just change the size of the icons. I never get thumbnails.

    I think it has to do with KMP because I know at some point the videos showed thumbnails but don't exactly know when they switched to icons.

Hi, My videos (mpg,avi) no longer show thumbnails. They were OK then they just appear now as icons! It's weird as some of them show thumbnails. How do I get them back? Thanks.:sarc:
