enlarged photo. Please help these are family photos for a gift.

Delete the file Thumbs.db in the folder where the pictures are (don't
worry about the ensuing warning). Reboot, and the problem should be
straightened out. If not, post back.

=============================
There is a hidden file in each folder that
contains image files called thumbs.db.

If you delete the thumbs.db file it may
solve the problem. If you cannot see
the thumbs.db file....open a folder and
go to...Tools / Folder Options / View tab...
Tick..."Show hidden files and folders" /
Apply / OK.

How do you delete just the thumbs and not the file? I am printing some pics
now so am unable to shut down system.

Thanks, John. I should have realized that the OP wasn't seeing hidden
files and explained it. Merry Christmas.

No problem, but FWIW I was not attempting to
correct your message as it had not appeared
on my server when I posted my message.

Happy Holidays
