Re: Windows Explorer - Thumbnail Views



Image | Attributes | Resize refers to resizing the file(s) using MS Paint (mspaint.exe) not Windows Explorer. Unless you saved a backup file before you edited any file you're probably SOL. It is just like editing a Word or Notepad file and not saving a backup before editing, whatever changes were made are then permanent.

SWAG: your thumbnails show OK because the thumbs.db file in that folder has for some reason not been refreshed/updated.

I've goofed!

I have some JPG pictures in a folder.

I resized some of them using the Image/Attributes/Resize options in
Windows Explorer - and I shouldn't have.
I DOWNSIZED some of them and only a portion of the picture is there;
however, when I use the THUMBNAIL option I can see the original full-sized
picture.

Is there some way I can capture the THUMBNAIL image and save it again as a
full-sized picture?

Thanks,
Doug
