Another thumbnail post ... sorry ...

<< < (3/6) > >>

EagleBrewing:
Thanks for checking in ...

No on ACDSee.
Refresh my memory on SFC. 
What do I do?
I'm an old fart and have CRS!

From one old fart to another...

Run the following 3 lines exactly from a cmd prompt (wait for each one to finish before typing the next):

--- Code: ---sfc.exe /scannow
findstr /c:"[SR]" %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log > "C:\sfcdetails.txt"
start "" /MAX "C:\sfcdetails.txt"

--- End code ---

Check the output for any errors or repairs that were necessary.

Reboot & see if anything has changed (for the better!).

EagleBrewing:
OK, I ran the first command.
I get many many pages of log.
None of it means anything t0 me.

I uninstalled MC completely.
Reinstalled a generic version (without my config file).
Thumbnails are still not showing up.
They show up in Windows Explorer.
Somewhere I thought I read the Windows might not be handling the thumbnails properly.
I think ....
Oh well, it will be OK.

Anti-Bacterial:
You could try this - it won't hurt as the thumbnail cache will simply rebuild itself as you browse files.  Might be worth a try.

Windows 10 thumbnails all messed up? Here's how to fix it!

Another reason may be you do not have write permissions to the cache files in this folder: 
%LocalAppData%\Microsoft\Windows\Explorer\thumbcache_*.db

Note: explorer hides this folder/files by default. You may have to adjust your explorer settings to view hidden files.
My suspicion is Windows cannot update your thumbnail caches at this location (folder/file access permissions), and is using the existing cache. Running DiskCleanup as described in the article should fix this by clearing and rebuilding the cache.

If the above options do not resolve your issue, you can try changing the MC settings to manage internal thumbnails instead of Windows as Mathias suggested above.

Failing that I think you might have some file/registry reference corruption.

Hope this helps you! Lettuce snow  :)

Cheers 🤞

Good catch @Anti-Bacterial: I should have thought of that (but then I am very old  ;))
