Here are a few steps you can try: Check View Settings : Open the folder where your images are stored. Click on the “View” tab in the top menu and make sure that the option “Large icons” or “Extra large icons” is selected. This will display the images as thumbnails in the folder. Rebuild Thumbnail Cache : The issue might be due to a corrupted thumbnail cache. You can rebuild the thumbnail cache by following these steps: Press Win + S to open the search box. Type in Disk Cleanup and open the application. Select the drive where your images are stored and click OK . Check the box for Thumbnails and then click OK and Delete Files . Check if Images are Hidden : Make sure the images are not set as hidden files. To view hidden files open the folder click on the “View” tab in the top menu and check the box for “Hidden items”. File Explorer Options : Open File Explorer Options (you can search for it in the Start Menu) go to the “View” tab and make sure “Always show icons never thumbnails” is unchecked. If none of these solutions work the images might be in a format that Windows doesn’t recognize or they might be corrupted. Thanks
