DPP 4 Folder icons no longer showing thumbnails of contents

[kjacobs4242]

I have a folder with all my pictures in it, labeled pictures. It has a bunch of folders in it labeled by date. I also have a few pics that got put into that folder. It used to show thumbnails of all the folders, grouped together, and then thumbnails of the pics too. I have lost the thumbnails of the folders, which were very useful to help tell what was in the folders without having to open them. How do I get the thumbnails of the folders to show like they used to??? All I see now are the few photo thumbnails, but not the folder thunbnails.

Welcome to the forum.

Can you post a screenshot showing exactly what you are describing?

Greetings,

Agree with John.   Are you using PC or MAC?  We are trying to determine where you are expecting the thumbnails to appear?

Using a windows  PC. Here's the screen shot.

I used to see folders similar to that, altough mine were rotated clockwise 1/4 turn from how yours look.

DPP is just a file browser.

My suspicion is that somehow the images you are showing were either inadvertently moved or copied to the highest level of your Pictures folder.

Go to the Pictures folder on your PC outside of DPP; do you see the same images there?

DPP will not show the contents of a folder that does not contain images.

See these three screenshots

Here's a screen shot of that. Thought I used to see folders like these in DPP, maybe I am mistaken, and it was in windows that I saw it.  Regardless case closed, I can go straight to PC to see what I want. Thanks and pardon my confusion.
