Hi, I have a problem with the PS startup screen. I don't see thumbnails of recently edited files. I reseted PS settings, reinstalled PS and unfortunately can't turn on preview.

Anyone have any idea?

Yes, the files appear under recent files (File > Open Recent). I reset and even deleted manually. The system is Windows 10. But ... it turned out the problem is in version 22.3 as I went back to 22.2 everything is ok. Thumbnails are visible.

The "Recent Files" setting is at the bottom of "File Handling" in the Preferences.

Do you see files if you use File > Open Recent ?

You say you reset settings.  Does that mean that you reset Preferences?  If yes, I'm so far at a loss as to what the problem might be.

 

What operating system are you using?
