hi.

when I want to select an image to open from the file>open box, no thumbnails are shown, only the same windows blue and white icon for images.
I just upgraded to krita 3.3.3 from 3.3.0 hoping this had been fixed.

I have very limited techspeak so please make your answers easy for me to understand. thanks.

I am running windows 10, 64 bit. I enjoy Krita very much and want to keep using it, but may have to get rid of it if this problem cannot be corrected.

thank you again for any help.

setings->configure Krita->general->miscellaneous and toggle "enable native file dialogs".

This is because on some systems the native file dialog doesn't work right, so we feel people should at the least be able to open their file even if the preview is terrible.

I followed your instructions and now it works fine.

Happy Dance!

thanks again.
