K KeyC0de Well-known member Joined Oct 22, 2020 Posts 63 Nov 26, 2020 #82 It happens with all files. Also it does not display the thumbnail of the selected file in the left bottom corner of the status bar in Windows Explorer. Check it out: It happens with all files, new downloaded everything. The usual solutions being Go to Folder Options -> Display File Icon on Thumbnails and System -> Advanced System Settings -> Performance Options -> Show thumbnails instead of icons. No I've already tried all that; they were fine. There is something else corrupted in my settings, possibly registry settings. It has to be.

K KeyC0de Well-known member Joined Oct 22, 2020 Posts 63 Nov 26, 2020 #83 More info: For non-pictures and non-videos they don't show up when the view options is larger than Medium Icons. For example here's how the recently downloaded folder looks "Tweaking.com - Windows Repair" looks like when the View options is set to "Medium Icons" (typically I have the view settings of all non-picture or non-video folders to "details" so that doesn't bother me much but for demonstration sake I made it equal to "Medium Icons" now): And here's how it looks when equal to "Large Icons": Same with larger icons - nothing shows up but the text-caption.

K KeyC0de Well-known member Joined Oct 22, 2020 Posts 63 Nov 26, 2020 #85 By the way the same view appears when I'm in a program and I "Browse" to search File explorer for files or folders. As I said it happens everywhere, every user, even new users (I tested it by creating new user). Safe mode or not, anyplace - anywhere.

SleepyDude Windows Update Moderator, Security Analyst Staff member Joined Dec 20, 2013 Posts 3,061 Location Portugal Nov 26, 2020 #86 What is your screen resolution and the DPI value? What happens if you open the Tweaking folder inside the TEMP folder and use CTRL + mouse scroll to adjust the icons size?

K KeyC0de Well-known member Joined Oct 22, 2020 Posts 63 Nov 26, 2020 #87 My resolution is 1920x1080 (native). I don't know how to find DPI. They increase (scroll up) or decrease (scroll down) in size normally. However, as I said above if they go above a certain size their icons don't show up at all.

K KeyC0de Well-known member Joined Oct 22, 2020 Posts 63 Nov 26, 2020 #95 I've browsed around the internet a lot for this. The only thing I haven't tried was one suggestion that apparently seemed to help a lot of people no matter how weird it sounds. And that is to uninstall Java 8. I'm tempted to try that.. I'm hesitant only because I need Java 8.
