Hello,
today I opened my Photos app and all of a sudden thumbnails of pictures are no longer appearing (as can be seen below). I've never had this problem.
Does anyone have a fix? I Reset and also did a Repair via Apps, but nothing, still no thumbnails.

Any help and/or solution would be greatly appreciated.

In Windows settings check Privacy & security - scroll down to Pictures - check that 'Pictures library access' and 'Let apps access your pictures library' are both turned on.

Thank you so much! Seems that the settings were reset after my latest build update...???
Anyhow, this worked. Thanks again. 🙏
