+1. I'm also affected by the same bug, after moving from 16.04 LTS to 18.04 LTS using upgrade process driven by update manager.
Thumbnails of files was visible under 16.04 LTS. Those thumbnails of files are not visible any more under 18.04 LTS after upgrading. Also thumbnails of any new graphic file created under 18.04 LTS, are not visible. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1796711 Title: Nautilus not generating image thumbnails Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Ubuntu 18.04.1 nautilus-1:3.26.4-0 When going to a directory with images those images that were there before I updated to 18.04 still display thumbnails. Any new images placed in to the directory don't display thumbnails. Any images, new or old, that are edited and saved back don't display thumbnails. Edit any existing image which does have a thumbnail and the thumbnail will disappear. The same happens on the Desktop which I believe also uses Nautilus to render.
