One downside of using regsvr32 /u shimgvw.dll here seems to be that it
seems to prevent my viewing photos (JPGs) in Thumbnail mode. I have
re-instated it with
Run | regsvr32 shimgvw.dll and immediately got thumbnails back. Anyone
else able to confirm this please?

It's also risk-significant, if the process of building or showing
thumbnails triggers the exploit, remembering that the OS is likely to
process WMF content within a ".JPG" file as WMF.

So I'd forego that functionality in the interests of risk management.
