      The icons for SKB backup files on my computer are thumbnails of the model, so sometimes I click on them by mistake. They used to be generic designs that could not be confused for valid SKP model files. I don't know how or when they changed. Can anybody help me change them back?

      I asked this question before, a couple years ago, but I don't remember the answer. 😞

        I found the answer...

        Run Regedit
        Find
        HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes.skb
        and delete this entry, this don´t interfere with the .skp thumbs, so if you rename the .skb to .skp the thumbnail will appear normally.
