Displaying thumbnails of .tga images in Windows Explorer

[Guest]

I have several systems running Windows XP Professional. Some of them will show thumbnails of .tga files in Windows Explorer, some of them won't

How do I get all of them to show thumbnails of .tga files in Windows Explorer

Thanks.

They may have lost a reference in the registry: Can't guarantee this,
but it will do no harm, and restores the standard setting. Make the
following, after - - start and before - - end into a file by cut/paste
to NotePad. Don't let lines wrap around ([HKEY to matching }] is one
line, the @=" starts the next), and make sure there is a blank line at
the end. Save as "Patch.reg" then right-click on this file and take
Merge to enter it into the registry.

- - start
REGEDIT4

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.tga]
@="tgafile"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.tga\ShellEx]

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.tga\ShellEx\{BB2E617C-0920-11d1-9A0B-00C04FC2D6C1}]
@="{1AEB1360-5AFC-11d0-B806-00C04FD706EC}"
