| 57194 | 2002-06-25 10:25:00 | I am running Win98 and would like to view pic's (thumbnails) in windows explorer - (jpg, gif, bmp) I had this function but it has decided not to be available!! I want it back and have tried everything... I'm not new to windows either. I have done the normal stuff - look in file types -It does show web pages and text etc. Any help would be much appreciated. I have searched and found 3 similar requests, but NO answers to any of them. Cheers |

| 57195 | 2002-06-25 10:54:00 | Hi Mike, Yes, I did a search on this site and the thread seems to be broke, so you only can see one message and none of the links to it :( Anyway, I found a page that details a fix for this problem: www.computerhope.com It involves some registry editing, but as you say you aren't new to Windows that shouldn't be a problem. Cheers, Rod. |

| 57196 | 2002-06-25 11:02:00 | I used to have Preview (Quick View) enabled in Win 98, and when I checked a file in Windows explorer, if there was an image in that file a thumbnail would appear. Is that what you need? I'm inexperienced so can't help further. Look in Start/ help/ then type the word* Preview*, and click on display. It will explain all about Quick view for files. Cheers, exLL |
