    Thumbnails not appearing in only some folders


    I do web design and have an off line backup copy for all of my web sites.

    In those folders no thumbnails appear for any images. All other folders on HDD appear normally.
    If I drag an image from a web site backup to another folder then that image's thumbnail appears. If I move back to the folder of web backups it vanishes again.

    Why would one set of folders refuse to display image thumbnails?

    How can I fix this?

    ( NOTE: I have tried deleting thumbs.db and thumbnail cache and turning view Tmbs on and off. )

    In the problematic folder play around with these settings shown in the screenshot. Especially the Customize folder option. You may need to use the Customize folder option and chose that folder type to be for images. Compare and contrast the problematic folder's properties/ customized folder options to the folders that DO render thumbnails...

Thumbnails not appearing
in Customization

I just installed Windows 7 Home Premium x86 on a friend's laptop, and the thumbnails we've all grown to love are not appearing. When I hover the mouse over the task bar, a small menu appears, not the thumbnails of the page. Also, when I hover over the show desktop button in the corner, it does not...
