Disable live folders but keep image thumbnails?

....is it possible?

from WinCustomize Forums

Hey everyone,

 

I was just wondering, is it possible to disable live folders (folders with images in them), but keep image thumbnails? I'm using a custom icon pack I made but I don't have live folders so I disabled thumbnails because it's the only way I know how to disable live folders.


The only problem is you can't preview image files with thumbnails disabled, which is kinda inconvenient. Is there any way to disable live folders but keep the thumbnail images in explorer? Can this be done in iconpackager? Any help would be great! :)

 

Thanks,

Well, i have found a custom way to manually "disable" live folders(you do not actually disable them though)... i too am using a custom icon pack, so what i did was to place a folder in the folder i want to "disable" the live folder feature. Then cut/paste every content of the live folder in the folder i made, and that is what worked for me.
