Blue area: the option has a value of 2048 KB, but as you see it on the second screeshot, xnview still shows thumbnail for 45 MB file.

True !

Perhaps the thumbnail is already in cache files, so in this case you have the thumbnail. Try with an empty cache.

I've never had caching enabled and I have the bug!

Sorr i can't reproduce it. Could you remove cache folder, and try again?

This option does nothing for me neither. Even if I removed all from cache, every thumbnail would still be displayed whichever the filesize.

I deleted the whole cache folder and the bug is still there.

Which filesize do you used as limit?

I used 1024kb which is the default.
Test file was 1.71Mb in size.

BTW, I suggest to rename this option to: No thumbnail for files larger than [____] KB. It just sounds better.

Ok, now i understand. for other files, xnview takes the thumbnail from windows explorer. So XnView doesn't create thumbnail for this file.
Perhaps it's better to use the same option for others files??

I have thumbnail caching disabled in windows explorer either.

For what "other" files? Which files are "other"? BMP, as in EgoSun's example?

If the files has not a good size (like here) then i ask the system to gets the thumbnail.
