Try Edit -> Preferences -> Environment -> Image Thumbnails -> Large.

Then, go into C:\Users\your_name\.thumbnails and delete the contents.

Restart Gimp and hopefully Windows will create new larger thumbnails as you go
along.

Another way is use a utility/cataloguing application that has the facility to
launch Gimp for any particular image.

example XnViewMP.
