Thumbnails are not updating rotation

jpg rotation works super fast and well, however thumbnails remain in the wrong orientation, which makes looking through lots of thumbnails tedious.
Win 11 and xnviewmp 1.9.5
See screenshot of thumbnail after rotation: preview is great, thumbnail still upside down. Have rebuilt dbase of thumbnails, no resolve.
Thanks much.

I rotate different ways. Usually select one or more images and click the left or right rotate button on the menu bar.
In the settings>browser>misc dialog, I have exif deselected, and lossless selected.
I also don't know how to get thumbnails that now show the wrong orientation back to normal (after the actual image has been rotated appropriately).

Yes, nothing happens when creating thumbnail via Exif only.
Not sure what you mean by "rebuild on this file".
I can't replicate the problem at will, however I have many thumbnails now who's rotation is out of sync with the rotated images. A bit frustrating.

Might anybody have an idea how to fix these unrotated thumbnails? I've done database maintenance and rebuilt all the thumbnails, but no change...

I've had a similar problem. After rotating a JPG images within a thumbnail, it updates, but it doesn't seem to work when I switch to full screen. I have to move to another image within the thumbnail, press F5, and then switch to full screen to see the rotated JPG image.

In my case, doing this doesn't change anything. I cannot, for the life of me, get those mis-rotated thumbnails to display properly. Here's how this still looks

Decided to remove xnview MP (only had zipped install), and put in xnview classic: same problem presists!
See attachment.
Other image viewers, eg Faststone, don't have the issue.
How can I fix this?
