...in fact it turns out that the missing thumbnails issue was due to the files being accessed via a symbolic link.

Viewing the images using the real link I think creates the windows thumbnails, although they do not display, even on a refresh: need to close and open MC and then the TN are all available on both real and symbolic path.

Support and Feedback / Tools->Picture Tools->Remove EXIF data: skips most files, no log

Hi,
from a selection of multiple image files, most get skipped and the Show Log button does not appear to do anything.
Using another tool (EXIF Purge), I could remove the exif data without a problem.

Background for this need, is that in both Explorer and MC many files would not show a thumbnail. I assume this is due to a problem with the embedded EXIF thumbnail. I could not find an easy way to bulk regenerate them, so deleting the EXIF I believe forces Windows to make its own thumbnail, which worked.
