    After updating a few Vista updates, including SP1, my folders will not show thumbnails on new files downloading, mostly AVIs...

    Any ideas?

    goto any one of the folders and check if this option enabled in Organize > Folder & Search Options > View

    If that does not work, try clearing the thumbnail cache using the Disk Cleanup tool

    Or just go to view in the folders you want to change and select "thumbnails. I think?

    That box wasnt checked and I cleared the cache but now no thumbnails show. Is there another option somewhere in Vista to show thumbnails or not?
