Windows 11: Thumbnail previews do not show on folders

I did clean install of the new build, i never update to major version change,download media creation tool from Microsoft is puts the new build on usb

This app has severe limitations. First, it only works with images, and I believe certain images. Of the ten folders I tried it on, only 3 now show preview images on the folder. Second, in order to do most of them, I have to pick that "clear icon cache," which adds 30 seconds every time to restart my windows explorer entirely.

This second option is a bigger problem because of another limitation of the app: it doesn't let you select multiple folders at once. If I click the parent folder, it puts pictures on that icon, but nothing inside. Inside I have over 50 folders and doing one at a time, with half that don't even work, causing 30-second delays to restart windows, means "hours" of time to get only a few working.

The new Windows 11 update brought back the folder previews, and they worked with videos or zip files or Axcrypt files, and show the image for all those on the folder. But I cannot install the update because it keeps me the blue screen of death, followed by the Error System Thread Exception not Handled. And my computer can repair this at all. I have had it twice where I was forced to start from scratch and rebuild my Windows OS and download all my apps and replace all my settings again.

Today I managed to get back on, but in order to continue operating, I had to roll back the update, which means no folder previews for me. :-(

thanks you kindly Carol
