Hi there,
So immediately I appologise because I know someone will comment and say this is in the wrong forum. I've read through and this is my best guess where to put it, but honestly I'm very unfamiliar with the site so I've probably done something wrong. Please feel free to tell me where to repost this properly.
Recently I let a program change what the default program to open video files with. After I noticed that this had happened, it obviously changed all of the preview icons on video files to this new programs icon. So I changed the default application back to VLC but the preview icon stays as the other app. I'm super confused as to why I can't get it to change back.
If I "get info" on a video file, in the top left, the icon is VLC's media player. But the "Preview Image" is of the other program. If I select the icon in the info panel, copy and paste it, the preview goes to VLC. But it only changes that single files preview, and any new video files I download or create automatically have this other program's preview picture, even though they all open with VLC by default. I have tried restarting and the problem persists.
Any help on how I can fix this issue?
