9/4/2005 8:54:35 AM    Folders will not display thumbnails in Thumbnail View
Hi. When I set a folder (My Pictures) to Thumbnail View, all the .bmp  
  
files show thumbnails, but the .gif and .jpg files still show generic  
  
icons.  What do I need to do to correct this problem?  I'm running  
  
Windows 2000 Professional, Service Pack 4.  
  
Thanks,

Unfortunately I don't know how to edit the registry.  Could someone  
  
please explain exactly what I need to do to fix this.  Thanks.

Hi  
  
The fix is quite simple. I had to do it about 6 months ago. It is just a  
  
case of changing a single entry in the registry.  
  
I am buggered if I can remember what it was. Sorry.  However AFAIR it is  
  
ion several web site so do a google on it.  
  
search on bmp and jpg in the registry.

Copy paste the following 4 lines into notepad.  
  
REGEDIT4  
  
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.jpg\ShellEx\{BB2E617C-0920-11d1-9A0B-00C04FC2D6C1}]  
  
@="{7376D660-C583-11d0-A3A5-00C04FD706EC}"  
  
Save the file as fixjpg.txt  
  
rename the fixjpg.txt file to fixjpg.reg  
  
right-click the fixjpg.reg file and press Merge.  
  
Confirm the update.
