Hi,

I am running 64 bit Vista Business Edition. I have a lot of pictures store
on my computer and since I installed Vista, thumbnails hasn't been working.
For all pictures, it just shows a generic picture as the thumbnail.

Please help.

Kit

Try this:

Open a folder with files that aren't showing the proper thumbnails.

Click Alt on your keyboard to show the Tools menu.

Click Tools, and then select Folder Options.

Make sure Show preview and filters is selected under Tasks in the General
tab.

Make sure Always show icons, never thumbnails is NOT CHECKED under Advanced
settings in the View tab.
