Bridge CC not displaying thumbnail/preview large PSD (win7)

Hello!

Latest Bridge CC, will not display thumbnail or preview of many of my large (1.5-3gb) PSD files.

1) I have PURGED CACHE in Prefs

2) I've individual cleared cache for individual PSDs.

So, I just see the generic icon.

My only reason for even using Bridge is to visually select from my large PSD/TIFFS without having to open them first.

I'm pretty sure these same files previewd when I was running CS6 Bridge.  Lightroom 5's import will show the preview.

Thanks

Have you checked your Preferences - Thumbnails - Do Not Process Files Larger Than xxxx MB

You may need to increase the size.

I had a similar problem and to solve it I selected all my images in Bridge > right clicked > selected 'generate high quality thumbnails' and it updated ok.

Thanks. That did the trick. It was strange since the thumbnails work in CS5.1 and 6. And I knew about Purging the Cache.

Then you must have set them before to a larger amount, I believe the default is 1000 MB and has been so for as long as I can remember

But I'm not sure about the generic icon because usually it shows a low quality thumb with black border, like the ones you get when using 'Prefer embedded' as quality.
