Re: Photo thumbnails have annoying icon on them, all of a sudden!

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

I'd give it a try, can't hurt. Still, after this added info, I'm not sure it
will work. What program did you use to create your CDs? How did you copy
them back to the HD?

Well, maybe I'll give it a try. I'm just suspicious of executable files!

You know, not all My Pictures folders' thumbnails have the icon on them --
just the ones I transferered from photo CDs I made on my desktop. I may
just try to live with them.

the hard work for you and saves us the work of explaining it to you and

I have to download a tweak or something from kelly's site? I don't
know
her
and have no idea if it is safe to download this file. I think I'd
rather
live with the icons than take a chance on getting my computer really
messed
up. Does not MS have a fix for me?

Click the link to Kelly's site right below Kelly's original text. I've
repeated her instructions below:
