Autocad 2015 file Preview in Windows 7

[TBOMS]

I just upgraded from Autocad 2014 to Autocad 2015. Every .dwg file I open and save with Autocad 2015 loses its thumbnail preview in windows 7.

Thumbnail preview settings are checked in Options, THUMBSAVE is set to 1, and I have tried the popular solutions from the Autodesk Support Forums (installed DWG Trueview, made sure PreviewVisible is set to 1 in the REGISRTY EDITOR), but no joy.

I realize the thumbnail preview is not a major component of working with Autocad, but for large drawing folders the preview makes finding the correct drawing much faster.

As a note, the .dwg files are still set to save in a AutoCad 2013 drawing format (as was the case with Autocad 2014), so I don't know why upgrading to 2015 would have caused this issue with windows 7.

Did you install TRUEVIEW 2015? Which DTV version did you used to have installed?

2013, it seems. So I found 2015, installed it, and now my previews are working again.

Thanks!
