PSD file icon - artwork preview vs simple icon

[konioa]

Hello all,

I have a general question related with windows.

Photoshop files in desktop (and in desktop folders) previews the artwork.

In any other drive folder I see only the photoshop icon!

desktop folder vs drive folder

Does anyone nows how to make artwork preview globaly?

Thanks

in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post if it helps you get responses.

Generally for Windows one needs a third party codec to show the psd thumbnails in Windows Explorer.

I notice the folder your displaying that has the visible psd thumbnails seems to be from a web page or site so maybe the thumbnails were created on the site.
