Lately, more than a few people have had trouble with missing file names in the thumbnail view of some of their folders. It isn’t entirely apparent why this happens, but fortunately the cure is pretty simple. If you are one of the poor souls who happens to be missing their file names, follow these steps:
- Open the offending folder to see the thumbnails
- Click View from the menus (or the view button on the toolbar), and click Details
- Hold the SHIFT key down on your keyboard and Click View from the menus (or the view button on the toolbar), and click Thumbnails
You should now see thumbnails with file names under them.
Apparently this was added to Windows as a feature to allow the thumbnails to be displayed a little larger, so you can use this technique to toggle the file names on or off in thumbnail view.
WOW!
that was easy thanks!

De nada!
Thanks you very much for this solution. I was already afraid of some virus doing this.
You can even have some fun with a friend or co-worker by fooling him with this trick and say his computer broke.
Thanx
