Windows11 photo folder does not show an image on my Nikon NEF/RAW files.

I have been forced to buy a new laptop running Windows11. My RAW files in the Pictures folder do not have an image on them, just a blue cartoon icon. This radically affects my workflow. Is there a downloadable fix to make the image visible?

@tututoes, You probably need to install the Raw Image Extension from the Microsoft App Store. The Raw Image Extension adds native viewing support for Raw images. It's a free download. Here's a direct link to the download page.
