Interesting - my W10 desktop, having had the free upgrade and all updates since, does not display a thumbnail for the only new DNG file I have, from the K5II.

All the other shit Windoze10 broke is a better argument for NEVER adopting it. On 9/25/2016 9:53 AM, P.J. Alling wrote: I've been viewing DNG thumbnails using Windows 7 and Windows XP for years.

Re: Windows 10 Anniversary and DNG files
Windows7 Explorer displays DNG files as thumbnails. IIRC, WindowsXP could too.
