PL thumbnail in windows 7 explorer 64 bit

Beitrag von OldRadioGuy »

There apparently is a glitch in the 64-bit versions of Windows 7 which causes Explorer to display a generic thumbnail for image files of a few image editors. That includes PhotoLine.

I found a small utility for .pspimage extensions that solved the problem for Paint Shop Pro. One of the Xara forums had instructions for command line registration of XarThumb64.dll which caused Photo and Graphic Designer 6 thumbnails to appear.

That prompted me to look at PL DLLs, but I didn't see one with a name that might suggest it contains thumbs. Is anyone else here running PL on Windows 7 64-bit? How did you solve the thumbnail problem?

Thanks.

I just tried this DLL registration procedure on another application appearing in Explorer only as a generic thumbnail, and it worked there, too.

So, I'm assuming this would solve the PL thumbnail problem if I can find the right DLL.
