As of yesterday All my images in my folders do not show what they are. All it is showing is a Paint shop pro icon (I have attached to show)Image11.jpg
Does anyone know how I can get my images back. This is driving me crazy. I do have Paint Shop Pro installed, but this has never happened before. Thanks for any help..

The first step is ensure that "Always show icons, never thumbnails" is not checked and then do a Restart.

I think the OP is looking for thumbnails, but it's possible that changing the file associations from Paint Shop Pro to Photos will resolve the thumbnail issue.
