I_Broke_My_MHZ Posted September 3, 2006 Share Posted September 3, 2006 Is there a way to disable thumbnail view showing movies? It's causing a problem where the movie file cannot be renamed/deleted because it is in use by another process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonic Posted September 3, 2006 Share Posted September 3, 2006 It is not thumbnail cause ...Just disable bug'd property handle [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\SystemFileAssociations\.avi\shellex\PropertyHandler] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tarun Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 Or a much safer method:regsvr32 /u %windir%\system32\shmedia.dll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bledd Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 Or a much safer method:regsvr32 /u %windir%\system32\shmedia.dllyup speeds up media browsing loads!and to undo it, you do the same, but remove the /u part Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Takeshi Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 Or a much safer method:regsvr32 /u %windir%\system32\shmedia.dllPlease explain in what way is this much safer? Just wondering... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EchoNoise Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 Uh... its safer because your not going through the registry, you never know you might make a mistake!The way that Tarun did it is safer because your unloading a system library that shows movie thumbnails (and more?) but you still have the file on your system (unless you remove it once its unregistered) so you can put it back on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Takeshi Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 Thanks, but Sonic said thumbnail is not to blame. So you're saying it is thumbnail afterall? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mangix Posted September 6, 2006 Share Posted September 6, 2006 exactly. just use Tarun's method and the thumbnail won't appear there anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonic Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 Using regedit method, you keep thumbnail and fix problems with move/rename media ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
