CRW Thumbnails in XP?

[Sierra Gold]

ON my XP system when viewing CRW files in Explorer I cannot display thumbnails as I can with nef files. Instead I just see a icon.
Can anyone help me resolve this?

Thanks,

There is a registry hack you can do so windows will treat *.thm files like *.jpg's (after all, that's what they are).

For the life of me, I can't remember where I got this registry patch. I think it was over at Phil Askey's dpreview.com Canon Talk forum, but I'm not sure.

I posted the patch here:

Just save it somewhere and then double click on it to merge it into your registry. If you want to look at it, right click on it first and edit it (in notepad).

You may have to be logged into WinXP with an administrator account to merge the patch.

On my system, the CRW files still show as icons, but the THM files now show as thumbnails.

Thanks for the patch, it works a treat!
