Because when using the shell to take thumbnails, the read images of damaged files have black edges, the following methods are born, but the efficiency is 3-4 times lower than that of using the shell (the time-consuming process is mainly in the process of turning the black background into transparent).

1. Add class windowsthumbnailprovider

[Flags] 
public enum ThumbnailOptions

    None = 0x00,
    BiggerSizeOk = 0x01,

    InCacheOnly = 0x10,

2. usage method

int pic_size = 256;
                        
Bitmap bm = WindowsThumbnailProvider.GetThumbnail(path, pic_size, pic_size, ThumbnailOptions.None);
