True for PDFs. You can generate them by forcing them into a 32 bit shell.

If you use the file>open command in Acrobat and allow enough time, the thumbnails will be generated and will remain available in Windows Explorer.

But again, I've yet to see InDesign thumbnails in Win Explorer.

All that said, I would hardly put this under the category of “problem.” It's a minor annoyance at worst in my opinion and using Bridge gets around any operating system limitation.

What known issues would that be, Ian? I'm running ID CS4 on Win 7 Ultimate 64 with no issues. AFAIK, there's no way to get image thumbnails to show up in Windows Explorer for InDesign. Use Bridge for that.

Actually, the original quote somewhere around 640 k, but he's denied ever saying it.

That could explain it. There are some very small differences and this might just be one of them. Perhaps Harbs wil be along to help out.

I assume you're referring to Vista and CS3 since this issue doesn't exist in Windows 7 or with CS4 and Windows XP 64 is unsupported. Here's a link to thread in the Adobe U2U forums with the fix:
