      OK,
      I have asked a lot of people and no one know the answer, I really want to know the answer and I hope someone in here knows why.

      In 32bit explorer I am avail to see Thumbnails of all my SKU files. On my 64bit machine I can only see Icons/Logo. Is there a reason this has changed? Or is there something I am not doing correctly?

        Thumbnails have never worked on 64 bit Windows. Some folks use alternatives like xnview, or similar viewers.

          Why would they get rid on some thing so useful?
          what other viewers are available?

            They didn't get rid of it. It's just that SU is a 32bits program, and win64 cannot read thumbnails created by 32bits softwares.

            We'll have to wait for SU 64 bits... 😉

              Or wait for 64bit Windows Explorer to run (thumbnailing) extensions of different bitness. Just don't require to run the thumbnailer in the same process.
              Things can be worked on from both sides 😉

              But who's faster? I haven't given up my bet on SketchUp…

                Thanks for the information,
                I just wanted to know why for my own education.
