Generating PDF thumbnails with chrome as default PDF viewer.

OK, this is kind of an odd one: I have lots of PDFs and sometimes it is a lot easier to recognise which one I need to open by seeing a thumbnail of their cover instead of scrolling or search by name. However, when you have a web browser as the default viewer explorer doesn't generate thumbnails. I would really prefer not to have to install a standalone pdf viewer to generate thumbs, so if anyone know how to do this I'd be super appreciative.

Hmm I heard that installing foxit reader will generate the thumbnails without the need of making it the default program to open pdf files.
