Doesn’t unticking, “always show icon, never thumbnails” fix the problem? I just got done doing this for someone else and it worked as expected. And, if you hit Restore Defaults, what you are showing is not the default setting.
Then I have a question. How do you get the Control Panel shortcut back on the Start Menu context menu? It used to be in the area of the red arrow. Please see attached.
I have pinned it to the Start Menu for easy access. I don’t understand why MS decided to remove it.
Also called the Win X Menu since the shortcut to reach it is the Windows key and the X key.
To answer Charyb’s question I’ve found this to be the easy way:
I used this tool: http://winaero.com/comment.php?comment.news.30
I had been having this conundrum when trying out the windows snipping tool and Greenshot - having seen that option it isn’t exactly clear - I always set image folders to show thumbnails, but could find no reference to thumbnails and as far as I was aware I wanted thumbnails not pictures.
And that darn window 10 ribbon affair is a pain in the backside, trying to find the old dead easy to find the Folder Options didn’t make it any easier. Why the hell that option isn’t in plain sight in the ribbon is beyond me.
So this option exactly clear, these ‘pictures’ that are displayed look just like ‘thumbnails’ in my other systems. Looks like thumbnails as a word/description has gone out of fashion.
Getting to the File Explorer Options isn’t hard:
Click on start > Type "file explorer options " and select the search result.
There are a dozen other ways.
Yes, I did find that, but all of those ‘other’ options for layout in the Ribbon, why not have it there in what I would consider the logical place.
Or why not have that option much higher up the chain in the View menu. The old ways aren’t necessarily bad, you’re in the file explorer and it has a menu, Tools > Folder Options and bang there you are and not a ribbon in sight.
I have a Dell Vostro 1700 which runs like a charm on the last build of Windows 10 v 1607.
As soon as I update that system to Windows 10 v1703, I have no internet. It doesn’t recognize my Wifi
I can’t even plug in the Ethernet cable. Any one else running into this and has any one found a fix ???
Bob, Have you tried going to the vendors website for the drivers? Asus don’t provide drivers for my system anymore but Intel still provides frequent updates for my Wi-Fi and Bluetooth and Realtek for my Ethernet - Audio and Card Reader, all of the above had new drivers released in the last month for Win10.
