Quick overview:
Windows XP offers the really ingenious feature of displaying the contents of folders as a small picture so that you know exactly what is in this folder. If the folder already contains images, XP always takes the latest 4 and displays them as content:
However, if you only want to take one picture of it, you must do the following:
1. Click on this folder with the right mouse button and select Properties. Now switch to the tab Customize.
2. Now press the button Select image... and assign them to a desired image.
In order for images to be displayed in folders, they must be assigned to the
directory in which the folder is located to View and then to Thumbnail view.
Founded Windows Tweaks as a teenager in the 90s. His helpful PC tricks made it Germany's most visited Windows site (at the time Sandro looked like this). He then went on to write elsewhere, for example for PC-Praxis, Computer Bild and PCWorld in the USA. Microsoft also poached him from us. Now Sandro is back, finally sharing his tweaks here again. For a stress-free digital everyday life. You can reach Sandro via e-mail.
