I was posting a YouTube video link to my Facebook account and for the second time in the last week or so, Facebook didn't generate the thumbnail of the video. So, the Facebook post was just my text and the link to the video. After checking numerous websites and blogs on how to fix it, I did my own research and found the fix.

So instead of my usual Windows video, here's why it happens and the unbelievably simple solution.

Also, this should work for any Facebook thumbnails, not just YouTube ones.
