Quick Vista Help

[Jokersvirus]

So my brother changed my settings to basic Windows xp crap so I could run two Eve accounts at once, its space MMO, and now I am having issues trying to locate a certain thing.

On Vista you can see what the picture looks like without having to open it, pretty much like look at a thumbnail. Does anyone know the steps to bring that back, cause I really dont want to go through picture after picture tring to figure out what i need.

I'm a little confused on what you're trying to do. So far I have that a thumbnail is missing? If you can clarify a bit more, I can see if I can help in any way.

Sorry its hard to think when your tired.

I dont know what the name of the option is, when a picture is saved normally you cant view it without opening, but here when the picture is say on your desktop you can see what it is without opening it. I dont know the general computer terminology for this but thats as best i can do with only 3 hours sleep

Can you change the views to icons instead of list or whatever?

[Jokersvirus]

ya but it still wont show the image

its the settings that have been changed that control that

This can't be solved by just looking at your setting?, or the settings in the folder its self?

[Jokersvirus]

Ive been looking at all the settings and i cant see it, do remember i havent had alot of sleep so my mind isnt working properly. So if the answer is right in front of me I must likely wont see it.

Not familiar with Vista settings but if you can change the view to Tiles or Icons it might work.

Otherwise go out of that folder, right click and see if you can select "Pictures" as the type of files it has. Then it'll allow you to view in filmstrip. I know it's available for XP but not sure if you can do it in Vista.
