Default No thumbs for pics or video. Only icon, please help

So, i got lots of avi's and other video formats and lots of pics i took over
summer. In XP, when u open a folder, u would see a thumb preview of the file.
In vista, its just an icon, for movies it is a icon that says avi, wmv
etc.... For pics, its just says jpg or gif.

Is tehre any way to make it back the other wya so i can see the thumb or did
microsoft just remove that option

thanks

Open up Pictures folder
Click 'organize'
click 'folder and search options'
click 'view' tab
uncheck 'always show icons, never thumbnails'

this should do the trick

Did you install Nero?

If you do then try using the registry fix to bring back thumbnails.

Don't open Regedit. Just doubleclick on the xxx.reg file. You will get a
message pop up asking if you wish to add the entry to the registry. Click
yes or ok.
