I used to use Thumbnail Handler which automatically showed my Paint Shop Pro tubes (versus just a PSP icon), but have been unsuccessful locating a program that will do this. I found this site and downloaded both and installed both.
Nothing worked, so I am wondering if I should delete the registry files that these downloads installed (thus my asking if anyone had the exact file name that I should delete). If anyone does have a PSP Thumbnail Handler that works with Windows 7 64 bit, for all versions of PSP, I would appreciate hearing back. Thank you Brink for your prompt response. I spent hours at this site, thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. Aloha HulaLady, I'm sorry, but I do not know of one for Paint Shop Pro files.
Hopefully someone may though. If you wanted to use the default thumbnail handler again for them, then using Windows Photo Gallery as described in the blue NOTE box at the top of the tutorial will restore that for you. The downloads in the tutorial are just default settings, so installing on or the other will either enable or disable thumbnails. No need to do anything with them other than to make sure that you have it enabled again. Hope this helps, Shawn.

Video icons without thumbnails do not function correctly Since installing Service Pack 1 I have had major problems with video clips. There are a number of scenarios with one thing in common: when I open the folder that contains the video files, the address bar starts to gray out as it loads the file icons then slows drastically and the icon stays as the label (MPEG, WMV, AVI) without the thumbnail picture for none, one, some or all of the files in the folder. Eventually the address bar is totally grayed out but the 'label icons' remain 'un-thumbnailed'. Sometimes when I go to another folder and return to the original folder one or more 'label icon' turns into a 'thumbnail icons'. All files can be opened and play correctly whether they are 'label icons' or 'thumbnailed icons'.
When I try to delete or move the 'thumbnailed icons' everything works perfectly. On the other hand, almost anything except correct operation occurs with 'label icons'.
For example, when I try to Empty a 16.1 MB 'label icon' from the Recycle Bin, I get a box that says 'Deleting 1 item (16.1 MB) - From Recycle Bin - 0 items discovered (0 bytes) - under More Information: From: Recycle Bin - Time Remaining: Calculating. Items Remaining: 1 (16.1 MB) - Speed: 0 bytes/sec' and the progress bar shows a small bar moving across it from left to right but the progress bar never turns into a solid line. This box never changes and is shown in Task Manager as a Running Application. The only way to absolutely get rid of the box is to end the task using Task Manager. Using the Cancel key or the X to close may or may not close the box.
When I try to move a 'label icon' to another location or click delete sometimes it will move to the new location or the Recycle Bin or I get the box described above. I can only guess that the problem stems from not being able to get the thumbnail information and that the drastically reduced speed of the address bar is a symptom of trying to find the info. I have done the following: Tools-Folder Options-View-unchecked Always show icons, never thumbnails From Brink's tutorial: 2. To Enable Windows Explorer Thumbnails.

Click on Save, and save the.reg file to the Desktop. Right click the.reg (On Desktop) file and click Merge. Click on the Run button for Security Warning pop-up. Click on Continue (UAC), Yes, and then OK when prompted.
When done, you can delete the.reg file (On Desktop). Logoff and logon, or restart the computer to apply changes. So far, no joy Any and all help greatly appreciated as this is driving me crazy (normally a pretty short drive anyway).
Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit Operating System Service Pack 1 Dell Inspiron 530 Intel Core Duo CPU E4500 @ 2.20GHz 2.20GHz RAM 2.00 Gb Hard Drive: 288 GB 119 GB Used 168 GB Free Compress this drive to save space Not Checked Index this drive for faster searching Checked. Hi Smilinged, Loading the thumbnails real slow or not all of them can happen sometimes when you have a large folder of video files. Are you low on drive space for the drive or partition that Vista is installed on? This can cause there not to be enough room for the thumbnail cache.
See if clearing the thumbnail cache can help any. This tutorial will show you how to if needed.
It would not be a bad ideal to also run a sfc /scannow command to see if it can find and fix and bad system files. This tutorial will show you how to if needed. Hope this helps, Shawn.
Shawn, I have exactly the same problem with Thumbs in Vista. I see them on all file types except saved web pages. I save them as '.mht' files.
I'm running Vista home premium SP1 64bit. I've been at this for weeks now and have followed all the advice here, to no avail. I've just successfully downloaded and installed your regedit file and also ran 'scannow' which found no problems. I enclose a screenie of my registry's 'Explorer' entries.
I have no problems with jpgs, bmps, all movie clips, etc, but no Web page thumbs. Are we saying that there definitely should be Web thumbs in Vista?
Another site told me that it was removed in IE7, but I also run XP SP3 with IE7 and Web thumbs are there. Desperate, Fred.
Thanks for the quick response, Shawn. Might I ask why this ability has been removed when it was there in XP? I can see no reason for it and the increase in work times that this causes is horrendous. I have thousands of saved Web pages.
The example I posted is a review of a Nikon camera and it goes to 35 pages. This particular review was better than most in that each page of the review had a defining name, but I have many hundreds of saved pages of Computer hardware reviews that are simply named 'page 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9, etc, etc'. I now have to wait whilst each page loads to see which part of the review it refers to, whereas under XP I simply open the folder and immediately have, in the case of the Nikon review, 35 thumbnails. Very large ones too on a 24' monitor.
I really appreciate your response, Shawn, as I have been trawling the Net for weeks over this. There must be thousands of us out here with this problem and there is no respose whatsoever from Microsoft.
If it's a security problem, why doesn't MS say so and tell us the reason? If it is we should surely be given the option of switching it on or off, as we can with UAC. As a workaround I reboot into XP, open up the relative folder, take a screenshot of the large thumbnails and retain in the same folder.
When I am back with Vista I can open the JPG and see what each page is. However, each time I do that I ask myself why the hell do I have to do this? I guess if you can't come up with a fix, Shawn, nobody can, but it can't be that hard surely? Maybe Bill can have a go at it for something to do during his retirement! Thanks again, Shawn. Thanks, Shawn, but I wasn't joking when I said I've been at this for weeks. I found that site very early on and managed to get that fix into the registry after a bit of trouble, but it didn't work.
If it's only for Vista 32, that might explain why, but not really. I had thought that it might be a problem only with Vista 64, so I've already tried on a 32 bit setup. Not Ave's fix but a test to see if the thumbs were there in 32 bit. I also tried it on a Vista business install and a Vista Ultimate. I might add that 'preview' in Windows Explorer doesn't work either with web pages. It's Ok with other file types, jpg etc. You obviously have a lot more contacts than I, so maybe somebody can at least tell me why we have this major omission in Vista.
How To Enable Thumbnail Preview
I appreciate your attempts to help, Shawn and in particular the fact that I get sent an email when there is a response. I've joined so many Forums over the last few weeks that I've lost track of who is who. I've saved all the Web pages I've visited but that only rubs this problem in as when I open the folder where I saved them I have a load of pretty meaningless URL pages each with a generic Icon ( unless I boot into XP again!) Thanks again, Shawn. Thanks for that, Shawn, but like I said, 'preview' doesn't work either with Web pages. I was the first amongst a whole bunch of people here to switch to Vista and that was mainly 'cos I had to have it to run MS FSX Flight Sim. In fact it was the only reason really, plus building a new high end setup. I am already very peeved at not being able to use either of my two Scanners, one being an HP flatbed and the other a very expensive slide and negative scanner.
Neither HP or MS would come to the party with drivers for them. That was the only reason that I kept XP up to date. I shall now go back to XP as my main Operating system and relegate Vista to the backup and use it only for Flight Sim work. I shall also tell all of my friends to stay with XP. I am really, really upset by this, Shawn. No reflection on your goodself intended of course, but I can't be satisfied by a 'security' excuse from MS unless I get chapter and verse on this. It has taken me weeks of effort to arrive at this negative outcome.
I have just this week watched 'Pirates of Silicon Valley.' 'Pirates of Seattle' could just be their Epitaph in years to come. Thanks for the info, Shawn. Sorry, Shawn but Web bpages do not show up as previews in Vista explorer! Here are two Screenies. As you can see, the JPG shows but the '.MHT' does not. I had already followed the instrutions in your excellent tutorial and all of my settings are as instructed.
Enable Thumbnail Preview On Taskbar
I found your site early in the piece and had already tried everything listed. My last idea is to install 'Firefox' and see if that is an answer. It's nearly 2:00AM here so I'm off to bed. Any other ideas to get previews in explorer would be appreciated.
How about posting a Screenie showing this Web page as a preview in Explorer in your setup? If I see that I'll keep trying but I don't believe it's possible.
