Yes, Thanks!
A new PC with windows 10 and without windows photo viewer was bought. This article made it easy to restore windows photo viewer
Brink is alway helping and I am so appreciative of his posts! I was able to get "Windows Photo Viewer" but the icon for the photos is not correct. the images all have the wrong icon. Can this be fixed?
Hello Silvera, :)
As a test, do the thumbnails for the image files show correctly using a different size (ex: Medium) for the icon?
They are all the same size I may not be understanding what you mean by thumbnails.
The thumbnail is the image you see on the icon.
See if using a medium, large, or extra large icon size will show it. Usually the small icon size (used in list and details) don't show the image.

I had do no idea you could change the size. From the image I posted above they are both the same size. Prior to the crash the icon was always shown correctly I recovered the Windows Photo Viewer from the registry using a posting you provided on how to retrieve WPV.
