Anyone find a good solution for making reasonable size thumbnails from all your CorelDRAW files? At this point I have maybe a thousand CorelDRAW files (user since 1.0) and having to open hundreds of directories and hundreds of folders to look for a file I can't remember the name of is a nightmare. Any third party apps for this, so I could have one directory with all my thumbnails by years?
Thank you! Happy Holidays!!!

Jim,
CorelDRAW creates thumbnails of the .cdr files so you should be able to see them in File Explorer

On 4K screens I find thumbnails a bit too small.
I'm well aware of CorelDRAW's built-ins, Shelby. I've been a user since the mid '80's. Corel thumbnails are too small to begin with, and too low res, and what I need is a way to make contact sheets of thumbnails of all my cdr files. Happy Holidays!
STT Thumbs i does a good job with thumbnailing older version files. I use ThumbsPlus as I have used it for years. It uses OLE to create very good thumbnails, and its conversions can be very useful indeed (like creating 2000px jpgs of .cdr artwork in batches) but its a bit clunky to set up and it can be a resource hog if you set it to automatically create thumbnails. I usually let it do its work when I am away from the computer. I have approx 56,000 files.
I can't figure out how to get CorelDraw files to show thumbnails in my Windows 11 File Manager, any suggestions? Google search and CD help don't show me.
