Photoshop CS2 .PSD Thumbnails in Windows Explorer

Is there a work around or a fix on the way?

I can not say one or the other but Adobe Photoshop's generate thumbnail
option was believed to have caused Window's explorer to crash when folders
containing a large number of images were opened.... This may be a true issue
but I never heard nothing official from Adobe or MS. All I know is when CS
was released the option was no longer available and I doubt it will return.


Try the Adobe forums to see if you can get some Official information

I've heard that sometimes this will work:

Load an older version of Photoshop then uninstall it.
It will leave behind the .dll you need to view .PSDs in explorer.
Meanwhile I think Adobe is retarded for disabling thumbs in explorer.
/me ends rant
