Everything not showing Thumbnails after Loading New Software

Post by LUV DEM TIGERS »

I run Windows 10 and EVERYTHING has been great. I have an older version of Coreldraw that goes back to 2017 and when I do a search on Everything for files it shows thumbnails which is perfect for what I need. I can easily see what is in the file before I open it. However I have installed a newer version that dates back to 2021 and I can no longer see thumbnails, only icons which makes it difficult to find the files I need to open.

In order to get back to being able to see thumbnails I have to unload BOTH Coreldraws and reboot and reinstall the older Coreldraw and I can see the thumbnails again. But as soon as I load the new Coreldraw I get icons. This is happened from day one, back in 2021, I just now decided to post about it because I am having to use the new software more and more so I have to keep it loaded on my new laptop, but not my other computers, and it is driving me nuts.

Do you see corel thumbnails in Windows Explorer?
-You should see the same thumbnails in Everything.
-Please make sure Thumbnails are enabled (Windows Explorer -> Folder Options -> View -> Uncheck Always show icons, never thumbnails)



Please make sure you are using the x64 version of Everything.

It works PERFECTLY until I install the newer version of Coreldraw. And if I completely uninstall everything and just install the older version the thumbnails work again.

Yes, but with the newer version of Corel, does Windows Explorer show thumbnails?

This is a dumb question, but how do you look for files with Windows Explorer. That is why I went with EVERYTHING because I couldn't get a good way to look at files with Windows 10. Also I did check the previous suggestion and that box is unchecked.
