View Full Version : Restoring Thumbnail
Bert Hibberd
December 26th 03, 08:47 PM
I wonder if somebody would mind helping me here.
Yesterday there was a post requesting the restoration of HTML thumbnails in
Explorer. Someone replied and pointed them to a registry edit.
Well, I had a similar problem - took the advice - success! Then I had to do
a System Restore due to a badly written piece of freeware, and guess what?
I've lost my thumbnails again.
Did anyone keep a record? Or is the same person listening in?
Thanks,
Bert Hibberd

See www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm, Line 17, Right column. This REG
file will restore the thumbnail view for a number of files, in addition to
HTM/HTML files. To use, save the file to your hard disk, double click it
and answer yes to the import prompt. REG files can be viewed in Notepad.
