There is a lot of STL files in every Warprints STL files package.
Recommending STL thumbnail viewer for a better overview.
With this, you can see pictures of all STL files directly in your explorer window.
Work with them will be much easier and comfortable.

You can use this STL Thumbnail utility:

Read instructions on the site.
Its not a part of the Marlin firmware.You dont need any other software to use this.


Other solution is to install Chitubox.
https://www.chitubox.com/en/index
I have tested that STL thumbnails working with versions 1.8.0 and older.
Not sure about the new versions.Some people have problem with this.
Not 100% verified.

Recommending to use Marlin3DPrinterTool.

With help from Tomas I created great thumbnails of all the parts to print within their directories.
I can confirm if you run Cura and have Chitubox installed it can cause Cura to close unexpectedly. This is caused by Chitubox's creation of thumbnails. I found this below software to work effortlessly on my win10 system. Link provided if interested.
