Preview in Open Dialog Box

[FlavioNeto]

Hello.

First, if this is answered, sorry me, I don't found.

My AutoCAD (2013) don't shows the preview in open dialog. I read something about edit a value in Regedit, but I don't have access to Regedit. Has other way to fix it?

Thanks!

Is the System variable THUMBSAVE set to 1?

[FlavioNeto]

Yes.

It may depend how the drawing was saved. Was it last saved in Model or Paperspace? Maybe it was saved while zoomed into an area that doesn't show anything. The preview will show whatever the view was on the last save. 

Or, do you not even get any kind of preview at all.

Thanks for reply.

In others computers, the Preview that's ok. It's only in my PC. Look the screenshot in first post.

Thanks for all!!

If you have not tried this, get whoever _does_ have access to your registry to do it.
