This is a pretty recent video about this topic so this comment is kinda like a tip. If this video doesn't work for someone or only partly worked: the problem might be with your onedrive trying to sync with your computer files (especially if you don't have enough space to upload all files to onedrive either). I had this problem with my completely new laptop and when I moved the exact same image folders to my external hard drive, all problems stopped and my image previews showed without any problems. That's when I noticed I only had this problem with folders that were linked to onedrive. I simply fixed this by uninstalling onedrive completely since I only use google drive anyways and hated seeing constant "you dont have enough space on your onedrive!!" pop ups, but you could try just unsynching onedrive with some folders if you don't want to be this radical lol.

That worked me too, thanks. Problem is I always had enough space free on the OneDrive. My problem started after I took my laptop to be scanned by experts because I thought I might have picked up a bad virus. They told told me I had removed it myself but the software they used changed a few little annoying things. I'm going to re install OneDrive and hopefully the problem doesn't start again.

Command prompt wouldn't go through, say's there's no /s Edit: I uninstalled OneDrive and my music mp3 thumbnails came back, but my video and image thumbnails are still blank. Final edit! Ok so after uninstalling OneDrive and restarting my computer I opened file explorer options and clicked restore defaults and reset folders and now 99% of my thumbnails are back! Idk what's wrong with the few files that are still blank but this is still WAY better than them all being blank.

I've done all these fixes. My recommendation is to take your Windows 10 computer, remove the hard drive and replace it with Windows XP. All my thumbnails came right back! I'm convinced Microsoft has lost it altogether! There was NOTHING wrong with Windows XP! Problems on top of problems on top of problems with 10 and I fear Windows 11 will get much worse. Things have gotten way too complicated.

I have tried all your suggestions a few weeks ago but no luck. All was OK until around 12th June after an up date for my new HP which was purchased 1st May and All in One, 64 bit, running Windows 10, 21H1. I take a lot of videos and put some on my KZitem channel so this is a problem I could do without! Thumbnails show on jpegs but not on my video clips. I have tried other suggestion and as the problem does not seem to be the computer but a Windows problem. No one seems to have the answer. I have been making videos since 2011 and never had a problem until this one one showed its head last June. Thank you for all the suggestions and if you know of any other to solve this thumbnail hitch, please let me know. Kind regards, Julie.

They still have their thumb nails on the original files on the first hard drive, but the backup copies do not have them on the external hard drive.
