I'm happy enough with this phone (except that it is rather large ), and I am up on it's limitations, it being a "budget" machine. However, I don't know how to:
1) Set the camera to take 48Mpx images - the best I can get is 12 Mpx, and
2) After importing the pics into Win 10, why do they not as image thumbnails - only as general Faststone icons? (This is the 1st time for any camera.)
Thanks,

1) I had to reset the App Preferences.
2) Something Nokia has not implemented well.
You say Windows does not show thumbnails of the image.
What is the format of the image? jpeg, dng /?/?
Can you post the image?
Thanks, Antioch.
They are mainly jpg images, and a few dng as well. I haven't got a specific image, but below is a screen print of the DCIM/Camera folder alongside the Win10 folder with the same images. Sure, the dng files never show thumbnails, but I hardly ever use them.
WIN 10 does NOT display thumbnails in phone folder...

PS: I'll be sending the same image to Nokia since I discussed it with them as well.

Present win 10 will show everything as thumbnails (raw, dng, jpg, tiff, png etc), but may or may even open in Photos some of them but not all of them.
On your image, on the right side, the thumbnails does not show image of dng, but shows jpg image of the dng file. On mine it shows thumbnail image of both after downloading it to my Pictures Directory of Windows 10. (This view is of your Windows Hard Disk).
On the image of the left side is the view of Nokia Phone Camera Directory and here you cannot see images of either dng or jpg and further they call it faststone???.
Maybe you need to tweak windows thumbnails default file options?
(I tried to send a dng but dpreview would not allow such 48 meg file, says "file forbidden".
