Steps to reproduce

Since the latest update, it stopped generating .svg thumbnails. It was working before. I restarted my PC multiple times. Tried toggling on and off the option and restarted after. It doesn't help. The .svg files are local, not in any cloud folder, and their thumbnails were generated before. At present, it doesn't work.

✔️ Expected Behavior

Generating .svg thumbnails.

❌ Actual Behavior

Does not generate .svg thumbnails.

No response

I attempted to reproduce this on mentioned version, 0.77.0, and did not have issues. Is this Windows 10? Windows 11?

A new version was released in the meantime - v0.78.0. Could you update to the latest version and let us know if this is still an issue for you? Thanks! /needinfo

Hi, It works, but not as expected.

I have a folder with 254 SVG files. At first, when I tried to preview the thumbnails, it didn't generate more than 2/3 of the thumbnails. When I refresh the thumbnails, it generates a few more of the previously missed thumbnails. After a few refreshes, it usually generates all of the thumbnails.

This is a massive improvement from before the update, when it wasn't generating thumbnails at all.

The attached svg was the last file to have its thumbnail generated. svg.zip
