Hi
on win 98 there are no thumbs thats why I started using xplorer infirst place
unless i am mistaken .The links in forum about thumbs i have tried with no avail so I assume this is because win 98 does not have that facility. However as i have found other apps like thumbs plus and irfanview show thumbs ok.
Is it not some clue that i cant over install ? would uninstall then try install help or will i just get back to where i am ?
Thanks for your time and replies to me .

if you see the "Minimum requirements" table in the quickstart guide, you'll see thumbnails require win98 with active desktop update, which would enable them in your explorer too
hello nikos
how do i tell if i have active desktop up date installed ?
I have never had explorer thumbs but xplorer worked ok with thumbs so i guess i must have it. or had it,but dont know how to check
cheers juliejo
Hi Nikos
from info on web I must have it asit was part of win in exp5 and i have got a later ver6
Q: Does Windows 98 SE include the Active Desktop?
A: Yes. The Active Desktop component has been included as part of Internet Explorer 5.
