Thumbnails for jpegs

[Guest Tom]

I have lost the ability to diplay jpegs as thumbnails, so when I open a

folder that contains any jpegs, I get an icon for the programme that will

open the jpg. I have tried using different programmes for opening the jpegs,

but this has not changed the ability to have thumbnails. The thumbnail option

will work for mpegs, but not for any pictures. Can anyone help me with this

problem please?

Running the .JPG file association fix should resolve this problem.
