Thumbnail view option missing from menu
For some reason, I no longer have an option on my view
dropdown menu for thumbnails. The thumb.db file is still there in the folder. I can view previews of pictures when I view a folder on web view. But no more thumbnails and no way to turn them back on. Doing regsvr32 thumbvw.dll did not fix the problem. It would seem to me that something has changed in my registry. I once lost the ability to create new folders as the "new" command disappeared from my menus after a video driver update on this same box. I had to reset a registry entry to fix that. I have some concern that the recent critical update may have disabled this funtionality, because when I updated a box that has 98 on it, I can no longer view or choose to view thumbnails there either. If I try to enable thumbnails on that box, the file changes to read only, the icon for it becomes a briefcase and the folder will not open at all, let alone allow for the viewing of thumbnails. Any ideas? |
