Finder doesn't show preview thumbnails

Hi,


I am on macOS Monterey (12.0.1) and a couple of days ago all my thumbnails are no longer showing a preview image.


I have tried all remedies I could find, restarting, deleting the plist, making sure Preview is selected as default, still same problem.


I created a 2nd admin account on my Mac, and it's working there, but not on my main account.


Before I start moving everything over, what else could I try?


Thanks,

Try booting into Safe Mode then boot normally.
