Level: Recommended For Novice Users
Description:
By using this tweak you are able to make that explorer shows a thumbnail version of bitmaps files in the current folder. This is a good way to preview bitmap files without having to open them first. For this, go to start > run menu, enter "regedit" and navigate to the registry path listed below. You can create a reg_sz (string value) value "(default)", if this value does not exist.
