ibert Posted January 14, 2002 Share Posted January 14, 2002 I have a ->huge<- folder of artistic photography depicting women (occassionally with a male) and I enjoy utilizing the thumbnail feature. It seems, however, the thumbnails do not save and each time (frequently) I would like to browse the photography, Windows must recreate each thumbnail. Can Explorer save the thumbnails? I thought it was suppose to as default. Also, is there any way to alter the thumbnail default size? Oh, another thing --- is there a way to speed up a slide show? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+primortal Subscriber² Posted February 15, 2002 Subscriber² Share Posted February 15, 2002 Seen this on Paul Thurrott's SuperSite Changing Thumbnail Options New!You can change the size of the Thumbnails view in My Computer by opening up the Registry Editor (regedit.exe) and navigating to the following location: Current user only: HKEY_CURRENT_USER Software Microsoft Windows CurrentVersion Explorer All users: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE Software Microsoft Windows CurrentVersion Explorer Add a new DWORD value called ThumbnailSize and give it a hexidecimal value that is between 32 and 256, inclusive (that is, the lowest possible value is 32 and the highest is 256): A value of 32 will give you the smallest possible thumbnails, and 256 will give you the biggest. Experiment a bit to find your sweet spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
