This is a pretty recent video about this topic so this comment is kinda like a tip. If this video doesn't work for someone or only partly worked: the problem might be with your onedrive trying to sync with your computer files (especially if you don't have enough space to upload all files to onedrive either). I had this problem with my completely new laptop and when I moved the exact same image folders to my external hard drive, all problems stopped and my image previews showed without any problems. That's when I noticed I only had this problem with folders that were linked to onedrive.

I simply fixed this by uninstalling onedrive completely since I only use google drive anyways and hated seeing constant "you dont have enough space on your onedrive!!" pop ups, but you could try just unsynching onedrive with some folders if you don't want to be this radical lol.

Thank you so much sir 🥺 Been having a hard time guessing which picture is which from among the image icons. I finally fixed my thumbnail-not-showing problem because of your straightforward and easy-to-follow instructions. More power to you sir. ☺️

is the fact that I use DR folder/ File marker the reason that I do enable to show thumbnails but it either will not or changes back on its own . Like now I have it enabled correct but thumbnails are not showing OR is it being difficult because I uninstalled Micro photos/ vid editor and just about al l Micro apps and installed my own ?

This has been driving me nuts for months, thank you.

man, i was starting to just get used to not having thumbnails and then i was just at my breaking point, im so glad i found this .. bot tutorial since it fixed it. i probably disabled them by accident when doing performance stuff

In my Win 10 Pro 64bit, all thumbnails show except for 60 fps and above footage That is HEVC clips dont show thumbnails, whereas even my Win 7 shows it correctly. Any ideas plz ?

dude, after many tuts and threads, i finally found this vid, thx so much man!

[Tzuyan_TS]

The command prompt worked the best thank you 😊 🙏🏻😊🙏🏻

[writerinrwanda]

None of these worked, but thanks for trying. I've also noticed that my thumbnails sometimes disappear when Windows has an update waiting to be installed. They return once updated and restarted. No idea why they've all disappeared now, though.
