Thumbnails all messed up??

Posted: 01-16-2007, 12:30 AM
I did a lot of file name reassigning and I just noticed that many of
the assigned names do not match the thumbnail yet when I switch from
thumbnail to detailed view, the names all match the photos.

Is there some way to get the thumbnail in sync with their proper
captions.

Thanks in advance.

==================================
It may help to open the folder and go to...
View / Refresh.

It also may be worth a try to go to...Tools /
Folder Options / View tab...and place a check in
the "Do not cache thumbnails" box / Apply / OK.

Here's some info on that:

What is thumbs.db

And one last thought...have a look at the
following article:

(813711) Your view settings or customizations
for a folder are lost or incorrect
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=813711

You can download TweakUI from the following site.
It has an option to increase Folder Customizations

Thanks John

I tried as you suggested without luck so next I tried cutting and
pasting all the pictures (less thumbs.db) in that folder to another
folder and lo and behold everything was straightened out.

Thank you!
