Hello,
I have a very inconvenient problem with my system that I would like fixed:
PROBLEM: My OneDrive folder (which is located in my (D
drive) does not display thumbnails for any videos. Thumbnails for photos, documents, etc. display just fine, its only the video files that don't. The video files are mostly .mp4 and my default video player is Movies & TV.
This whole thing started when I imported media files from a standard SD Card onto my laptop, where they uploaded to OneDrive. When I downloaded the media files onto my desktop, none of the video files had thumbnails. Later, I tried importing the files directly to my desktop from the SD Card...while most of the thumbnails loaded...some did not. I tried many online 'solutions' but that only made the problem worse; now none of my video files (within my OneDrive Folder) display thumbnails.
(note: every single thumbnail displays perfectly when viewed from the SD Card or (C drive.)

FAILED 'SOLUTIONS': I have tried many 'solutions' but nothing seems to work. The main 'solutions' I have attempted are;
- Unchecking the always show icons, never thumbnails function in File Explorer; View (ribbon)>Options>View.
- Checking the show thumbnails instead of icons function in Control Panel; System and Security>System>Advanced System Settings>Performance>Settings>Visual Effects.
- Deleting and Resetting my Thumbnail Cache using Command Prompt, PowerShell, Disk Cleanup, and even deleting the .db files from the source (C:\Users\My Username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Explorer).
- Pausing OneDrive syncing (by closing the app) then moving the video files to my (C drive where the thumbnails came right up, and then moving them back to my OneDrive Folder under my (D drive where the thumbnails only lasted a few minutes and then disappeared again.
- Uninstalling, then reinstalling OneDrive altogether.

Is this an unsolved problem? Apparently a lot of other people are dealing with the same thing. Where's the problem?
I have looked online over and over and have scoured the Microsoft Community pages but no one has the answer!!! Would really appreciate a fix!
Thanks,
