Thumbnails on Vista disappear in the seconds following the opening of a file

I scoured internet trying to find an answer to this question.  I did everything, compensation on the thumbnails folder to change the registry, delete the thumbnails that exist.  I've done the easy things: ensuring that the icons are 'big' and that the box IS NOT checked by "always show icons, never thumbnails.  I also made sure Windows Photo Gallery is the default application for all the photo files.  None of my files jpg (or something else) display thumbnails and becomes very, very frustrating.  I made sure that I have all the updates of my software and still nothing.  There must be a remedy for this.  I have had this phone now for about 9 months and I still can't understand.

If I plug an external device, such as my digital camera, these vignettes show very well.  Those on my computer but will not display.  If I try to update, they show for a millisecond and go back to an icon of a beachy scene.

Please help me.

I have Windows Live Gallery.

He showed the thumbnails fine after doing the above, but still not show when I open a folder (such as my "Pictures" in my documents folder) or on my desk.  They should show there as well.

Interestingly enough, I returned to Windows Live Gallery and now thumbnails are gone again.  Is there a program that could create this problem?

What is the next step?

================================================
As I said previously... just some ideas... because I don't have the exact solution.

If you are familiar with the registry... you could try the following regfix.

My memory is not what it was but I remember a similar question
where the pictures folder contained a few corrupted files.

And I wonder if you have a corrupted user account. Could be interesting
to try to create a new user account and see if the same issue still exists.

  • I got rid of the Vista Security virus, now I can't open any .exe file and DOS commands do not the case.

    I used a program to blow this stupid fake virus Vista Security that's happened here. Subsequently, I can't open any .exe files. If I open a file saved in this format (for example, a Microsoft Word file recorded) will be open, but not all of the original programs themselves. I can't do a system restore because it's a .exe. The DOS commands, including the .com-style those don't work either! Help please!

  • Problem VLC media player - option of the context menu "add to vlc media player playlist" disappear in the selection of multiple files.

    OK, here's my problem. I installed VLC. It works very well. I have 'Add to playlist in vlc meadia player' on the pop-up menu file.

    PROBLEM: If I select more than 16 files and then "Add to vlc meadia Player playlist" disappear from the file context menu.

    ANNOYING: This stupid Windows Media Player is still there.

    QUESTION: Why vlc disappear from the file context menu if I select more then 16 files but wmp doesn't?  Is M$ trying to force people to use WMP?

    I also did my OWN program and he added in the context menu, and I discovered that my OWN program has also 16 files limit.

    Why windows deletes non MS program context menu, if I select more than 16 files? How can I solve this problem? I want to have my custom context menu program, even if I select more than 16 files.

    How to fix this?

  • InDesign CC cursor turns right after the opening of IDML files?


    We have Adobe CC (not the 2014 yet).  I have a client who cannot open InDesign files that have been saved as IDML.  Although they open, but the cursor just spins never go to the arrow to work within the file.   However the same file can be opened on other computers and users with InDesign CC very well.  She can even take a since his office existing InDesign file and open and save it as a file IDML, and then if she tries opening it will have the same problem.  File opens but the cursor runs forever.

    Windows 7 Enterprise x 64 bit

    Looking in to the process task manager, it says that indesign is still running.  (do not answer messages, etc...)

    She receives the IDML files with clients and others who have CC 2014 and save this return, or which were recorded in this format for our customers who still CC and need.  May not know what to do, or it could be the cause.  Help is appreciated.

    Thank you

    However, it was something that I already did and continues to the question.  Why the same thing would have worked for Adobe, or if they actually did something else so that remote in his machine, I'm not sure.  But the preferences of compensation is the motion for a resolution, and he now works for the client.  Thank you

  • Photoshop displays an error and closes whenever the opening/saving a file

    It started just happening really recently and I don't quite know what is the cause, so I was hoping someone here could help me! Open or save files, Photoshop displays this error message and closes of itself:

    Runtime error!

    Program: C:\Program Files (x 86) \Adobe\Photoshop 7.0\Photoshop.exe

    R6025

    -pure virtual function call

    and here is a picture of the error message: http://i.imgur.com/rK6Ji.PNG

    It appears when registering and opening some files, but not others. I can't figure out what causes it to happen to individuals, since they are not all in the same place, or the same type of file.

    I am using Windows 7 64 bit and it's Photoshop 7.0

    Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

    Photoshop 7.0 is kind of old to use on Windows 7, but I'm not saying it's impossible.

    The message you saw is not generated directly from Photoshop as I know.

    • You have installed plug-ins lately?  Or perhaps applications like iTunes or QuickTime that could change things in your path?
    • The free space on any of your drives crosses a border terabyte?  Photoshop 7 has some problems with large capacity disks.

    Another thing you can try, if you have not a direct failure reason, must clear the default Photoshop preferences by pressing Ctrl - Shift - Alt immediately after cold start Photoshop.  If you get the keys down quickly enough, it will set up a prompt asking you to confirm the deletion of your current preferences.  Note you will have to re-do the changes in preferences, you did after doing this.

    If all other fails, current version of Photoshop Elements, which is inexpensive and fully compatible with Windows 7, did better, and more features than Photoshop 7.0.

  • Add tabs and toolbar add-ons disappeared at the opening of the browser closed.

    I've deleted and reinstalled 17.01 three times now. The first time was to enter my bank site. The second because I still had problems with the download. My browser has been working well for a few weeks. I was using the browser, it closed with open tabs (oh, and I have an open tab alert, since the upgrade to 17). Normally, when I reopen it the browser, all the tabs are there and open. This time, the tabs were opened but my add tool bar on top has been closed, even though it has been verified to be opened. I closed the browser and reopened and was not just add it to the toolbar gone, but now all tabs have disappeared also. I uninstalled and reinstalled 17.01, and nothing has changed. I came to hate 17 with a passion.

    And, no, I have not installed anything new, and I did not tab mix (what ever that is) add on.

    I don't know if restarting the computer has changed the situation or not. The site of the Bank developed after the reboot.

    I am so angry, I lost a whole day dealing with this mess. And yet, I can't be sure that something will happen.

    I know that you tried to help me and I would be grateful, but everything I see right now is a ton of work a head of me, that I did not honestly.

  • Files transferred to new Vista platform, only the icons in image files

    I finally migrated all software and files to a new laptop, Vista to Vista. I've done it before, actually enjoy it!

    However, an unexpected and insoluble problem (so far): when I opened the files of images I see only the same icon for each image contained in this folder. I can't find in any case for the actual image is visible.

    I'm very sure it's just a matter of "flipping a switch" via a toolbar or command, but it escapes me.

    Any thoughts? All are welcomed, thanks!

  • How can I get Windows Vista to stop the shortening of long file names?

    I copy the files with long names in .zip files. Whenever I drag a drag the file to .zip (also with a long name) file, it renames the .zip file in a much shorter name. This only happens on my computer, my wife can perform the same task that I'm with her computer, and it won't rename the file name. We're both under Windows Vista. Is there a way I can get to rename the files? Thank you!

    WHEN I ENTER THE COMMAND PROMPT, ALL JUST AS RAW FILES AND I HAVE NO ACCESS TO ANYTHING, CAN ANYONE ADVISE AS TO WHAT IT IS BETTER TO DEAL WITH THIS FRUSTRATING PROBLEM?

    If the hard drive is to report its type of RAW format, you are almost out of luck.  The hard drive has failed or the formatting of the hard disk is damaged.  There is probably nothing a user will be able to recover all the files and the chances of recovery by a professional are inversely proportional to the amount of messing around make you - the more he gets tampered with, the more the chance that it can be retrieved if it can be recovered at all.  It can be simply dead and beyond the resurrection.

  • Why am I suddenly get pop ups, prompting the opening of 2 files Firefox?

    All of a sudden after leaving Yahoo email, I got a pop-up indicating that it was a pop up of the FF, to want me 'open' and no matter what I do
    He continues to pop up. There are 2 windows pop up, a SEO https://s.yimg.comand r - sf.html (640 bytes) AND another making reference to the same thing except this one had the reference as r - csc.html (1.1 KB). The only way I can get rid of them is to keep
    by clicking Cancel. WHAT HAPPENED TO FIREFOX?

    If these files are open, as shown by default, I remove downloads, but they keep popping up when I open the browser.

    I need help as SOON AS POSSIBLE.

    Thanks for the link to the similar issue, FredMcD. It seems that the new update could be the problem. I just installed the new update now (43.0.1) hoping there is not more of these problems.

    I don't know what I did yesterday, but these pop-ups have finally disappeared. I have everything clear when the browser is closed, then the value of FF
    There is nothing in the cache. However all that was at the origin of the problem, these pop-ups are gone.

    Thank you all for your answers. They are much appreciated!
