Multi Commander > Support and Feedback

Thumbnails are not shown after long Multicommander runtime

<< < (2/2)

Kwargs:
TL;DR of the writeup below: windows disk cleanup -> thumbnails and afterwards F5 in MC and the thumbnails are back. Thus, it is a Windows 10 bug.

I tested png and jpg.

I just try to name anything that comes to my mind but not necessarily needs to be important:


* The issue occurs on at least two computers that I use, both with Windows 10 x64
* Many folders I use are on external PCs in the same network.
* I often use view mode "Details" on the left pane and view mode "Thumbnail List" on the right pane.
* I open a folder in which there are multiple subfolders and no files. Within each of these subfolders, there are at least 3 files of types*.hdf, *.py, *.png. I want to see thumbnails of these *.png - files.
* Often, I want to skim through all subfolders and see have a quick look at the *.png files. Thus, I select a subfolder and send it to the right pane via the hotkey ctrl+right. On the right pane then, I see the thumbnail.
* The thumbnail seems to even vanish, i.e. I leave in the evening and a thumbnail of the *.png is shown on the right pane, and in the morning I only see the icon of the file. Windows seems to actively "update" the thumbnail.

I just did that, let's see.

If that works, then the issue in within the MC caching.

I tried it and it did not help, however you gave me an idea: I used windows disk cleanup to clear the thumbnails. Then pressing F5 gave me back the thumbnails without restarting MC.
