I've tried all of the registry fixes I could find, including checking the ". Also, as I recall, I lost the ability to view the thumbnail images right after an automatic update about 6 months ago, I've been trying to resolve the issue ever since. Dennis Elliston. I used to be able to view the thumbnail view of autocad. Does anyone know how to fix it. This thread is locked. You can follow the question or vote as helpful, but you cannot reply to this thread.
I have the same question By joining you are opting in to receive e-mail. Promoting, selling, recruiting, coursework and thesis posting is forbidden. Students Click Here. Related Projects. For the the life of me I cannot figure out why the thumbnails previews will not work in Windows Explorer. I've ensured that the check box is checked in Solidwork's options menu and done some other checking in WindowsXP.
It is rather odd as I can preview pdfs through the thumbnails. I have recently upgraded to a new machine with a clean install of Solidworks SP3, when this problem surfaced. On the old machine it worked great. We have this problem on two different machines. I was excited for a bit because I have the same problem, but that solution does not work because there are no tick-boxes for SW file formats. Ah, sorry about that. I hadn't actually tried it; just remembered it was there and posted the link.
Lots of other good stuff there, though some of it is getting a bit old. There is a file called sldwinshellextu. Anyway Zachd, I understand where you're coming from With that, I have a reasonable understanding of what is likely OS bugs that microcrap never seems to fix and what is merely somthing that might be fixed with s simple settings alteration.
You see, filming the problem may show the viewer symptoms and behavior that can clearly be identified and corrected A blood sample, under a microscope, may often be photographed and filmed for another party to see specific behavior or a visual characteristic that an expert, thousands of miles away, may be able to identify and suggest corrective action.
On another point, you suggest that a brand new computer out of the box, could have third party codec packs installed. Perhaps, but unlikely The computer that had it installed.
So does that mean your are suggesting that third party codec packs are actually part of the Windows OS installation disk? You ask for the formats and the codecs they use If it showed a particular thumbnail once If you have been following all the posts in this forum, you might see that I have 2 machines I don'tsee why I should have to refomat either and if windows 7 was worth a d.
However, I might very well try that. First I'll try that "shell" splitter mentioned by Zachd. I didn't say a virgin system would have a third party splitter installed. Installing it would be counterproductive. You specifically said no players were installed: I was pointing out that that's not the question at all.
You didn't refuse to mention codecs or file format: that's of high interest in that you could be using third party codecs that might be having multi-instance problems.
A folder of just WMV files exhibiting the issue is one data point, a folder of just MPEG files exhibiting this issue is one data point, a folder of AVI files exhibiting this issue is one data point, a mixed folder is another data point, a folder on an internal hard drive working correctly when it doesn't work correctly on an external drive is another data point I mean, that's me, being practical and logical.
But let's avoid that kind of specific detail that might get you somewhere and get back to the blood tangent:. Yes, perhaps there are people that think it's really cool to be able to fight your way to get answers to critical data points. Getting a picture of blood as opposed to the blood sample might be a roundabout way to perhaps gather pieces of data, and miss other important aspects, but it sounds like an utter and complete waste of time and resources to me.
But then maybe I just have more respect for my own limited time unlike those blood photo experts you refer to. I saved it but it did not give me option to "double click and confirm" How to do that? I tried doing the last two steps but it did not work. Did I miss something? Ok, so you exported the. It still does not do anything. It's not changing it. Now I know that the. It's just not doing the change. I gave you the formats in the second post.
I gave you links to people with the exact same problem you said these posts were letting a third party handle the formats I explained that it is unlikely a codec issue for sometimes a thumbnail might show You can read hundreds of other posts with people with the same problem and all the suggestions you make have already been discussed in those That is NOT logical All you do is continue to troubleshoot the notion that there might be some third party software It had this problem before I even went online with it, so no software could have been installed.
Additonally, it turns out all the formats I spoke of are already being handled by Shellex, there is no Haali insatlled yet. You give the standard responses expected This is not true with one of the computers, and doubtful aon the other. If this bug can be fixed, the logical and practical approach is to start on what comes standard on the Windows 7 and figure out twhy that is not working This is so clearly a Windows 7 bug and until Bill gates or Paul Allen complain about it, Microshit won't do a thing to fix it.
If you want to try something logical and practical, try thinking down the path of why the DEFAULT settings for Windows 7 are doing this and not something added into the system Stop thinking codecs, it's not that.
The process by which windows explorer reads the information must be the key Just for gigles here is a cut and paste of the codec listed on one computer within windows media player. Version: 6. DLL 6. DLL Name Key Binary Version Audible. Message said it "successfully" imported data and I could immediately see the.
EDIT: I noticed that it only worked with. And that worked for the. I will probably add the string for. Thanks again. Seeing as how I have this problem I have read that the need to edit the registry is usually because some other conversion software or player chages it. You might find it easier to open the files from the folder they are in. Set the folder view to "List" and then just select the video you want to open, right click and select play.
This is the way that I have always done it. The point of this particular disscusion is why the thumbnail view doesn't work You should stick to answering questions from users who get their printer to work ShellEx doesn't handle anything itself.
It's just a wrapper with subcomponents that can be replaced Assuming that you're seeing this problem certainly! Why are my many systems so blessed? And I ask a smart question about getting precise data from you: you finally supply that data, prefaced with "no third party codecs' - and yet multiple third party codecs show up! Do you see why I bother asking dumb questions? It's because there's been a thousand people before you that said "Of course I did XXX" - and yet they hadn't, and all sorts of other things you gloss over but that an area technician would have to pay attention to.
Or in your case, "I didn't install X! So yeah, that system is very much unclean. I don't know how you installed FFDShow Tryouts - there are multiple installers that deliberately subvert Windows multimedia safeguards, so that's always scary. And why I ask the question that you were against answering and then answered incorrectly. If it were the first instance, a truly clean install with no fudging about third party codecs such as PowerDVD and FFDShow and etc would not show the issue. On a truly clean system, does this happen?
The second suspicion is drive-based: the comment about a format affecting this issue is ambiguous, though. If you copied the files to a second drive and looked at them from there, do thumbnails work better or the same? If the same, we should be squarely looking at some sort of software issue. If there was a bug here in thumbnails, which I and the people in my team look at every day and I would be puzzled to see have slipped through the cracks, then the first step to getting a fix on the MS side would be to get support or "someone" a debugging trace showing the shell going through the motions of getting thumbnails.
I believe actual support not forum "support" has tools to gather that kind of data. I am not a normal end user and have no idea what MSFT has as fas as tools to gather this type of thing. I know WinDBG is there in the debugging toolkit, but I don't know what kind of walk-backwards-debugging toolkits are available to capture process traces with. For giggles, you could probably capture a trace with just WinDBG: we could run a simple lm v , which would either happily prove your point that third parties aren't involved here or sadly support my theory that you shouldn't discount them unless you're really certain.
If you can eliminate both third party software and drive from the question, that's really the next step, especially given that I cannot reproduce your problem. I know the Windows Error Response number for ffdshow installed to your system as noted above by heart at this point.
Allow me to ask my dumb questions and you'll usually be in for a better experience. You know a lot more than me about most things: this is one of the few areas in the world where I kind of have a lot of random knowledge. The installation of ffdshow codec pack if you read the posts of the 2 others I posted with this same question was done AFTER a suggestion on June, 14, by "Linda Yan". I tired it It is not the cause of the problem, it was merely an ineffective solution from another worthless tech.
So, if the problem existed before the installation of ffd show, Would you agree with this reasoning? As this discussion has taken over 2 months you will find that other things have now been attempted Should I flush the system completely Are you saying that will work?
I promise it still doesnt' work on the brand new computer The significantly more likely problem, within that particular problem venue, would be that it would be overwritten by another misguided codec. Anybody telling you to install the K-Lite Codec Pack to solve this sort of issue has in my opinion provided you highly dubious advice.
This is a huge and complicated field: I would expect that those not highly versed in it would be confused enough to suggest something like that, since it implies a partial but significantly incomplete view. Read: calling somebody "worthless" seems lame and unfriendly, and unjustified based upon that. Yeah, a lot of people can and will offer weird advice that may take you further from solutions here. I'm sorry.
There are fewer people who have a great understanding of this area than there are people who have a know-enough-be-dangerous understanding of this area. Removing FFDShow obviously may or may not affect this issue. I'd note that that's something you can try yourself without any input from me. If it happens on a clean system and when the files are on a second drive, then the first step to getting a fix on the MS side would be to get support or "someone" a debugging trace showing the shell going through the motions of getting thumbnails.
If they are avi or wmp I suggest you try the steps provided by SadisticSoul above. If after you follow the steps things still don't work, go back to the.
Here's a 'cleaned' version of SadisticSoul's registry entries, minus the unrelated player entries:. It IS annoying that so many 'experts' post facile answers such as "reset folder options" and then seem to disbelieve that it won't work! The notebook shows video thumbnails fine and the PC doesn't. MPEG etc. I have the 32 and 64 bit Klite codecs installed, however the problem wasn't affected either before or after these went in. Basically something prevents the consistent generation of icons on some systems and none of these solutions bandied about resolve the issue for thousands of people so far.
What we can do is eliminate the three issues often suggested as Asmodeus posts below:. I will probably have to reiunstall Windows on the PC and waste a day fixing everything again Once Gates and Allen no longer ran the company I use this software Media Preview 1. You can get here for 32 bit and 64 bit systems. After installation, just click on Select All and all your video should have a preview now.
Hope this helps and share the solution. Thank you. Here's what happened to me. I used a downloader to get an flv from youtube converted as a WMV the wmv played on media player just fine.
Suddenly, I notice that the harddrive is active and I open taskmanager to see what is funking up the system. There are other problems in other directories that I want to use thumbnails such as photos. Eventually, I conclude I'd been virus infected somehow. There are two different version of dllhost. One of the versions is for 32bit emulation the other is for 64bit. I start to freak thinking that I'd certainly been hacked.
Norton's can't find a virus and the only file i'd downloaded is reported as safe so I'm freaking thinking I have the one and only brand new virus and think it will take me days to figure it out by myself.
