I'm referring to when Microsoft Office (or other applications) by default open a folder with images (such as "my pictures"). Of course I try to switch to another view, but as I said below, since Office defaulted to an image-containing folder and defaulted to 'thumbnail view', it takes a long time before the system will even let me change the view. As soon as the folder opens, its like windows explorer is trying to generate a preview of some of the 50MB images in that folde
Thumbnail view (or the preview pane) must have the capability of being disabled somewhere

I have very large .jpg and .tif images in some folders.
When these folders are opened in Word or other
applications, sometimes this defaults to "thumbnail
view". This takes FOREVER since apparently windows
explorer tries to render a preview for every image in the
folder
