Default image size in Explorer.
The images in the folder "Pictures" have a default size of "large".
Can this be changed to default to "Extra Large Icons"? |

Can I get the images to open as "Extra Large Icons" automatically? |

Thanks, I do this but I don't want to. Can I get the images to open as "Extra Large Icons" automatically? This is a really old article. https://www.ghacks.net/2006/10/02/ch...-preview-size/ HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Explorer ThumbnailSize DWORD 256 Using the Folder Options, you can set the View of all folders to your Extra Large thumbnails. That would likely override the previous registry setting anyway. I can't really predict the inheritance of the previous registry key, versus the settings in the particular file explorer pane. There's a very good chance that setting won't have any effect at all. Currently the thumbnails come in four sizes, and you may spot cache files with file names that identify the pixel dimensions used for each. The 256 is just a guess. If you remember, we had a discussion about thumbnails before, when I wrote a little code to force thumbnail generation for a whole folder tree. That code didn't make them display, and all it did was reduce display time by having all the thumbnails pre-loaded in cache. Paul |

You might find that Faststone Image Viewer would suit your purpose. It can be downloaded from http://www.faststone.org/FSViewerDownload.htm I have posted a picture at https://imgur.com/a/drRSV which shows six picture icons and a selected picture in a larger view. |
