01The problem

Why .fig files show no thumbnail in Windows

Figma lives in the browser and its desktop app adds nothing to File Explorer, so a .fig file on disk is just an unknown file to Windows.

Each .fig saved by Figma carries a small cover picture of the file. Design Previewer shows it as the thumbnail and in the preview pane, without opening Figma or signing in.
