Icons for .docx files are rectangles with black lines on the inside

I recently increased the size of the font on my computer for the icons (via the Customize option in the context menu in the office) one size higher (I think it's 10 now). I don't know if it's related, but now when I see the .docx files on my desktop and in folders in my documents instead of a rectangle with blue lines and a blue w, score in the corner, I see is a rectangle with a large number of black lines. It's not what I'm used to, and it's distracting. When I make the folders in my documents score show list view or small icons, I think the traditional icon. But when I do the plus icon (either medium or large size), I get this black rectangle. I don't know if Windows tries to give me a thumbnail of the file (or the first page of it) or not, but I'd rather widely by the icon traditional .docx.

How can I get that back?

I use Office 2010 on Windows 7.

I agree, it sounds like it is trying to display a thumbnail.  To turn off power, click on organize up to left and go in options of records, then on the display, the first box tab, according to me, must "always show icons, not thumbnails.

Unfortunately it also means that you will not see your thumbnails of photo either, just an endless sea of identical icons to 'image file '.

You can also delete the thumbnail of the file itself.  Open the file in Word, choose "Save as" and uncheck the "save thumbnail" option until you press save (and confirm the replacement of the same file, save on top of itself with the non-thumbnail version).
