FastStone is wonderful; it is the backbone of my digital imaging endeavors. Buckskin you have encouraged me to look more into this software this morning for viewing my files. I am impressed so far and it just may replace Windows Explorer for me providing I can get used to it. The more recent versions allow the program to be opened in two instances/windows,which is very handy. I can drag/drop back and forth between FastStone and Explorer just the same as from Explorer to Explorer. Check out the screen capture; I like it better than any other that I have used; I can capture a screen-shot and then add text, arrows, and such under the "ABC" tab, and then save the edited screen-shot all within FastStone. It has an excellent renaming feature and the best upsize/downsize tool that I have found anywhere. You can "tag" thumbnails and then select either the tagged or the untagged, a very useful feature. You can select a group of images, right-click, and edit "Properties" on the whole batch at once. It has a really good scanning dialogue as well. It is also a pretty competent photo editor.

It has happened to me only a few times and I don't know how those files were different from other .png files. Rita Rita, my experience has been similar to yours -- it doesn't happen all the time. Most of the time the PNG files display the way they are supposed to. I never had this problem with Windows XP, 7, or 8.1. Now I have Windows 10. I began noticing it sometime last year (after the release of the 1903 update, May 2019).

For the benefit of those who may have stumbled upon this thread at the end of the discussion, here is a quick recap . . . Problem:
I imported a bunch of freebie PNG files and initially they had a white background when viewing them in my folders but now almost all of them are black . . . Solution:Do a Disk Cleanup and make sure that the "Thumbnails" box is checked in "Files to delete". OR
Rename/move/copy the problem PNG files. Source: My every png file thumbnail background is black and not transparent? (Solved)Results:1st Solution:The problem disappeared! My PNG files are back to being displayed with a white background. 2nd Solution:I copied/pasted the problem files into another folder. Black background gone! Thank you Sepiana - so far so good. At this point, I can see them without having to open them. Thanks!!
