How to view Thumbnail Previews in Finder with V14?

Post by lazyroll »

If I'm correct V12 supported this feature, is it just me or for everyone now Moho files doesn't show thumbnails?

I'm an a Mac computer and mine doesn't.

Windows users can see thumbnails, though.

I haven't seen file thumbnails, even on Windows, since v12. If I reinstall v12 and change the file association to match, it works, but as soon as I set Moho files to open in a different version they quit working again.

Victor once mentioned something about cleaning a bunch of stuff from the registry, but without specifics, I'm not about to start deleting registry entries just in the hopes that I can get thumbnails working again.

And I guess they work for other Windows users. But even on a new computer that only ever had 13.5 and 14 installed, they've never worked.

We found a solution for the macOS thumbnails. They will be back in the next update.
For Windows it has been a bit trickier (thumbnails work, but they could stop working if you install two or more versions of Moho), but we are working on it.

I had that problems several times. I all the time solved the problem randomly. Sometimes I uninstalled all the versions, and reinstalled only one version. But that sometimes does not work. Sometimes after uninstallation, I went to clear everything related to Moho in AppData, then installed again carefully. If that methods does not work, I use a third party app called PictInst. It is an opensource file thumbnail viewer and easy to use. We don't need any configuration. We just need to install it.

GASP! I've seen "Belgarath" at the top of every thread, but I've never seen a post by this moderator. I feel both confused and amazed, like the time I saw an albino squirrel.
