i tried both of these... Taskbar List or Thumbnail Previews Mode - Change
option 1: nothing happened.
option 2: when i get to the point where i need to click on "DWORD" the options on that list are all greyed out & im unable to click anything.
just installed 7 on my laptop.
I am not seeing the window "thumbnail previews" when I mouse-over open items in the task bar.. All I see is black blocks that pop up with the name of the open windows, no live preview?? where is this option to turn on?
I had to reinstall firefox and now I have no thumbnail previews. I tried the about:config taskbar enable set to true route but it didn't work. I didn't know how much I depended on them until I didn't have them!

View 0 Replies View RelatedA week after downloading the new GeForce GT 540 drivers I started getting a rippling effect rolling up my screen only while I play video game (COD2). It was the same day that my parents maid came and cleaned and she cleaned my laptop (Asus K53SV) and knocked it off dual monitor somehow. Could she have caused the effect too? Anyway, my only thought was that it was the driver so I rolled back to the old driver. When it came back, my windows frame and taskbar colors were much lighter colored and the Thumbnail previewer changed to a list. No problem, I switched back to the new driver (rippling effect never went away) and all was fine with Thumbnails.Today (several days later), I started up the puter and the colors were lighter on Windows and the Tumbnails Previewer was gone.So I rolled back the driver and reinstalled new drivers and nothing changed. I googled the problem and found Brink's instructions to save Thumbnail Previewer thing to desktop and hit merge, etc. and restarted and still no Previewer.

View 0 Replies View RelatedI recently reinstalled Windows, and my mum was using my computer to open a PDF file, but since I hadn't installed Adobe Reader yet, the file couldn't open, so she attempted to open it in Internet Explorer... So anyway, I installed Adobe Reader X, but the default program to open PDFs was still set as Internet Explorer, so I had to change it to open with Adobe Reader. It opens properly now, but there's one problem, there are no PDF file previews in Explorer; if I make the icons bigger it just shows a big Adobe icon. I tried the fix here: Fixes for 64-bit Adobe Reader preview handler and thumbnails but it doesn't work. I also tried using an alternative PDF reader (Sumatra) but I still get no previews.
View 9 Replies View RelatedUpon first opening Explorer in Windows 7, everything works fine. If I switch to another folder, I lose previews. In some folders, I have no icons at all. It doesn't seem to matter what the content is: .docx, .jpg, .avi. All icons are lost. The dreaded green bar starts crawling across the top. I have a spinning magnifying glass in the left pane. In "my computer" I can't navigate to any drives. It's beyond frustrating.I use a custom desktop theme and everything worked up to now; switched to Aero theme and have the same issues. I've run Malwarebytes. No problems discovered. I rebuilt the icon cache. Same problem as above. I did a system restore to a point before this started. Same problem. I started in safe mode. Everything works fine.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have enabled the Preview Pane (Organize/Layout/Preview Pane) and the preview pane is displayed. However, the only preview that is displayed is *.jpg. Other files such as *.doc, *.docx, *.xls, *.txt and .eml are not displayed. Also I understand that there is someway to preview *.pdf
View 3 Replies View RelatedI don't know the technical language to describe this problem. When I click on the icon to display, say, all open programs of a type the previews pop up and then fall down again within about a second. The same thing happens with alt-tab... pressing alt-tab brings up the usual screen, but it disappears within a second preventing me from tabbing through anything even though I'm holding down alt. I'm going to install a keystroke monitor to see if something's stuck without me knowing it, but I don't get the keyboard failures on startup that I should get if that were true.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI recently upgraded a Packard Bell desktop to Windows 7. It was originally XP. When I installed 7, it didn't look the same as my laptop that had 7 pre-installed when bought. On the desktop, it doesn't show previews of windows on the taskbar when scrolled over etc. Can I make it the same as the laptop?
View 14 Replies View RelatedI have a some folders with lots of icons or lets say pictures. So when windows start to make thumbnails it can take some time and it's quite irritating. I've noticed, that it only happens when I restart, so when the thumbnails are created they probably stores at some location and after restart they are deleted. Is there a way to save those thumbnails or previews so when I access specific folders they will show right away with no delays?

View 4 Replies View RelatedAbout a month ago I acquired a large .mkv file. Cutting to the chase, I deduced that when, in explorer, I simply clicked on the folder containing this file, my available memory started to disappear about 10-20MB a second until it was depleted; at which point system performance came to a near halt. I also eventually found out that it was the process explorer.exe that held all of this available memory, EVEN THOUGH the task manager AND resource manager showed that explorer held a steady... 25MB. On my 4GB ram system, after just about a minute, all 2.5 gigs were gone and when the explorer.exe process was ended, all that mystery memory re-appeared.Booting in Safe Mode, clicking on this folder did not produce the same result.Over the next few weeks, I acquired more and more .mkv's. NOT ALL OF THEM create this problem, but about 40% of them do, with the exact same symptoms. I tried disabling thumbnail previewing on individual files AND folder thumbnailing, and it STILL caused this super annoying issue.I can not move these large .MKVs to another hard drive unless I am in safe mode. not acceptable.

Usually I have opened a lot of excell files and they are very similar each other. I recognize them by the title on the thumnail on windows taskbar. If I click on a file that is open in backgroud it switch on desktop, but if it is already on desktop it goes to background.
This is very unpleasant to me. When I click on a thumbnail I want THAT window. What can I do?
i like many others have the problem of all thumbnails being spontaneously deleted every other day or so , and all the 250mb worth of thumbnails being slowly generated again only to be deleted..which is a major inconvenience since my processor is comparatively slow and videos take time for thumbnails to be generated.i found that the deny permission for the explorer folder where the thumbnails are stored does indeed work, however i noticed that while i have this workaround enabled, windows aero starts lagging (the scrolling of explorer pages, even firefox pages, and any graphical effects start occurring in short jerky steps) which i again hate. as soon as i removed those deny permissions (and the thumbnails spontaneously deleted) i haven't encountered that aero lag...so its not my graphics card or driver.i have currently disabled all thumbnail generation, folder browsing is behaving very fast but it just doesn't look good for pictures...for the videos its livable with.so any way i could limit thumbnail generation to pictures files only?
