    jake7943. welcome to the forums. Try these steps

    Right click your desktop and select Personalization

    Click Tools then Folder Options from the drop down

    Click the view tab

    Deselect the box labeled "Always show icons, never thumbnails."

    Click "Apply" to save your changes, then click "OK."

    That should do it for you

    Interesting way to get there Dude,

    @Jake,
    You can also Click on Organize on the top left (on the same pictures page) and click on Folder and search options,
    View section and Uncheck the same box... Apply and Okay.
