Can't View Photo files as thumbnails

catsus2 · #1 Jan 2, 2006, 05:02 AM

I am running Windows ME and my picture files can no longer be viewed as thumbnails. When I select "Thumbnails" under "View", the thumbnail shows as the icon of the program I am using for viewing and editing. Any reason for this and how can I remedy it?

Hi,
Do you have the preview pane on the left side of your screen?
Like, when I open My Pictures, there is a preview screen on the left side.
Click on View at the top, then click on "View as a webpage".
If you have that option in ME, then try it. Might work.
Best of luck.

My preview pane is on the right side. I do not have the option to "view as webpage" under "View" in my toolbar. Any other suggestions?

Hi,
Here is a link for ME; scroll down about halfway, past the install steps, and there is a lot of information that might help.

Meantime, If I find a specific answer to the issue, I will post back.

The website offered lots of good information on Window Me. Unfortunately, nothing that would assist in viewing my picture-file thumbnails.
