Windows 10 No Thumbnail View for .mpg & .m4a files

[Axel PC]

Does anyone know how to get .mpg & .mpa files to show up as thumbnails? I have a ton of old family videos and I want to see thumbnails for them. I've been able to get .mov files to show up as thumbnails. But that's it. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

I would try installing K-lite codec pack. I have it installed and I can see thumbnails for mpg files.

Oh wow, I haven't downloaded a K-Lite codec pack since the P2P days of Napster and KaZaa. Do you have a trustworthy link to download it? I remember lots of malware-infected links being out there.

Which version do you recommend I download? I'm just wanting to see thumbnails of all my video files.

Basic should be fine.

Thanks, I'll go with the basic and let you know how it works out.

The Basic worked great, thanks @Neemobeer !
