..And how do I get them back?

For those of you who use Windows and Photoshop you've likely noticed that when you use Windows Explorer, your PSD files show as only a simple icon rather than the thumbnail image.

For the answer and a solution, read this article from How to Geek.

I was going to say that I've been using FastPictureViewer for years without a hitch, and sure enough, that's what the article suggests. Finally, I made a right decision, lol!

Thanks, Preston. That's a great find.

Thanks, Preston. I first installed the trial and then decided to buy. Glad I did because I saved five bucks that way. If I had purchased without the trial it was $15. A pop up in the trial asking if I want to purchase had a $10 offer.

BTW,,,,,,it works great for a lot of file types that only showed generic windows icons.
