Most image thumbnails replaced by icons in file explorer

[DavidDavidbhbhihihgf]

Most of my image thumbnails have recently been replaced by icons.


I'm not aware of any action that precipitated this change.



This only affects some files, but it affects multiple folders, sizes/ages of file and file types. There seems to be no pattern to which files are affected.



I have tried:

• Checking the display thumbnails box in file explorer view settings
• Clearing thumbnail cache by using the disc cleanup function
• Clearing the thumbnail cache using cmd prompt
  taskkill /f /im explorer.exe
  del /f /s /q /a %LocalAppData%\Microsoft\Windows\Explorer\thumbcache_*.db
  

Any help would be much appreciated!
