<p>I did start the process. I sorted by date and worked one file at a time. I could see that as I drug, a transparent thumbnail appeared. All went well until about half way through the directory. I still couldnt tell the file, but I have the list narrowed down. </p>

<p>Not sure if its related, but my pc freaked out this morning doing a "refresh/bounce back and forth from desktop to start" loop. didnt give me time to click anything. finally got task manager up and found a "WINDOWS THUMBNAIL EXTRACTION.." loop under status. Finally got in enough to run restore and got it working again. I think (from searches) was from a windows update. </p>

<p>I'll try that too. Its not in all folders. The root material folder crashes when I switch to thumbnails. If I do that to a sub-directory, it typically wont crash. </p>
<p>I think its a material because as I turn the thumbs on, as they generate, it appears to crash at the same file. Its just that process is a spit second and I cant tell which file it is, so the elimination process should weed that out... I hope.</p>

<p>It's possible, although the thumbnail previewer has some code in it which makes it difficult to actually crash, even with a bad material. (Yours clearly is crashing). One way to test is to move some materials to a new folder and reset explorer to open the new one. You may need to unload and reload explorer. You can do this in Task Manager if you're comfortable-- or by logging in and out if you're not.</p>

<p>Be sure to check the sizes (30MB or more)of the material too. The larger they are the problems they tend to spit out.</p>
