no image preview in folder
When I save any Gimp 2.8.22 image in a folder, it won't give, me a preview of it in the preview pane. I have to open it up in Gimp again to see what it is. How do I fix this?

A bit scant on information. What OS and is this using the Gimp File -> Open dialogue? - as screenshot 1
It could be the images are just too large. Modern digital cameras especially, can produce large files.
Check in Edit -> Preferences -> Environment -> Image Thumbnails and see if increasing the Max Filesize for thumbnailing changes anything. screenshot 2
If still stuck, there are free dedicated, graphics file managers such as XnViewMP, that will display thumbnails and can be set up to open an image in Gimp.

Well, try and get Gimp working first.
I suggested XnViewMP as an image manager/browser because it is multi-platform and I do not know your OS.

Sorry, it's Windows 10, any image file saved through Gimp. I figured it out, I just export or overwrite the file in jpeg format and then it works fine. Thanks.
