A: Windows creates a file called Thumbs.db for folders that contain pictures. The Thumbs.db ( .DB) file caches a thumbnail version of the pictures in the folder, making it quicker to view the thumbnail images each time the folder is opened. The Thumbs.db file is often viewable when the "Show Hidden Files" option is turned on in Windows. To activate this setting, first open a folder in Windows. Then choose Tools → Folder Options.... View Folder Options Click the "View" tab of the Folder Options window and check the option that says "Show hidden files and folders" as shown below. Show Hidden Files Click Apply in the lower-right corner of the window to apply the changes to the current folder. If you want to show hidden files in all folders, click the Apply to All Folders button near the top of the window. Then click OK to close the window. How to Remove the Thumbs.db File You can delete the Thumbs.db file by simply dragging it to the Recycle Bin. However, the file will be regenerated each time you open the folder, which means deleting the file has little effect. To prevent the Thumbs.db file from being created, follow these instructions: 1. Open a folder (or the specific folder you want to change). 2. Select View → Folder Options from the menu. 3. Click the View tab. 4. Check the "Do not cache thumbnails" option (see below). 5. Click OK to apply the change and close the window (or click Apply to All Folders to make the change systemwide). Do Not Cache Thumbnails If you change your mind regarding either of the above settings, you can revert back to Windows' default settings by clicking the Reset All Folders option. NOTE: Windows Folder Options can also be accessed from the Control Panel, but any changes made within the Control Panel options will have a systemwide effect. Ruben Figueroa Ruben D.
