Thumbnails icon in Finder Since the last update on Monterey, I no longer see the preview images in the Finder. The preview shows the generic .JPG and .PNG icon, whereas before I saw the preview images in thumbnails. I use this option every day in my work, it is essential to my job. How do I get the thumbnails to display again?

JPEG and other thumbnails not visible in Finder Upgraded to Monterey a month ago. In the last three days about 90% of all JPGs, PNG and MP4 files have been replaced by placeholders. The images can be viewed in preview, but not as a thumbnail. Under view options, the settings are to show icons, show icon previews, and show preview column. The JPGs are visible in the preview column, but only JPG placeholders are seen in the icons. This is a new problem; I haven't done any major reorganization of files. As an aside, if I click on the Downloads folder in the task bar, the window shows the actual JPGS, but if I look at it in Finder only the placeholders can be seen. Some folders will show the thumbnails, and some won't. Additionally, I realized that PNG's will not open in Preview as they always have. When I click on a PNG file, the preview icon is added to the dock. When I click on it, a window opens up showing the files as placeholders with a single file seen in preview. This is totally new behavior. Has there been an update to Monterey in the past few days that has caused this behavior? This is very concerning; not being able to see thumbnails in folders with many JPGs is a definite problem. Need some help with this one.

12.2.1 installed but NO thumbnails. I am going crazy -- having to open every file to see what's in it is taking up hours of extra time. Does anyone have a fix PLEASE?
