I'm running ubuntu 24.04. My thumbnails disappeared, I think due to a recent update. None of the solutions here work: File manager in Ubuntu 20.04 not showing thumbnails

Various solutions sudo apt install ffmpegthumbnailer using did not work.

I'm trying to install Nemo but get this error message when I do:

`The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 libgail-3-0t64 : Depends: libgtk-3-0t64 (= 3.24.41-4ubuntu1) but 3.24.41-4ubuntu1.1 is to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

How can I solve any of these problems? `

Also I tried to install Dolphin which also gave me a similar error: The following packages have unmet dependencies: libkf5baloowidgets5 : Depends: libkf5filemetadata-bin but it is not installable E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

Try this method: Thumbnails not showing in video in Ubuntu 18.04 First, install ffmpegthumbnailer and gstreamer1.0-libav packages. Run following commands in terminal:

sudo apt install ffmpegthumbnailer gstreamer1.0-libav

Then remove thumbnail cache files from the file manager:

rm -r ~/.cache/thumbnails/fail

And then re-launch the file manager. This solution works in 18.04, 20.04, and 24.04 versions.
