Thumbnails not appearing on new install of Xnview on new laptop

[davidwu10]

Hi guys - been using this program forever and just had to replace an ancient laptop that finally gave up the ghost. Installed the software, and while it shows the files it doesn't show them as thumbnails - only blank "sheets." Not sure what settings I haven't turned on?

Sorry to ask a newbie question, but I am stumped (especially after having been frazzled by a completed system reinstall)...

Thanks!

use XnView MP

Thanks for the response, and I should have been more specific. I AM using Xnview MP, and so not sure what's changed from my old Windows 10 laptop setup to the new install on my Windows 11 laptop?

Thanks.

As another follow-up - do I need to dome some sort of initial "build all thumbnails" process? Everything is in one master folder and its subfolders. It's been years since I first installed the program, though always updated it when prompted.

Just checked settings on old systems and they mirror new system.

Thanks.

OK - an update - it appears that the program IS showing basic images (JPGs, PNGs, etc), but NOT CDRs, which it was in the other version. I don't recall having to "code" this anywhere - but do I?

Thanks again.

And rechecking my now-old laptop - it was on version 1.9.5, and CDR and CPT files show as available associated formats. the new 1.9.8 does not.

Did something change?
