Mpeg and AVI Folder Thumbnails Gone ?

Anyone know how to restore thumbnails for Mpeg type files in folder listings .....

They show for 'windows media/video' type files but not for Movie Files (Mpeg) or AVI types ?????????????

Have tried resetting folder defaults etc

(Real Player was 'assigned' to these types but I 're-asigned' them to MS Media Player to which they open with.

Thanks

noblues,

Which OS are you using? (In winXP you can just change the folder to show Thumbnails.)

Take Care,

noblues,

That is usually fixed by setting the associations for the files. (Try changing associations again.)

Take Care,

Hi noblues,

I was going to get you to PM me a hijack this log, but I see you've posted over at TechSupportForums, so I've asked there instead.

Cheers

Liam
