Picture Icons

I have a problem with viewing my pictures. All of my picture icons were
changed to standard-generic icons when I had my computer restored to the
factory direct setting. Now they don't display anything except a flower,
house, ect.

My question is:

How do I change the picture icon setting back so I can see a tiny
preview thingy for each icon, instead of having to click on each one to see
what they really are?

If you think you can help, drop me
a line, Thank-You

Hi TriforceOtaku,
