There’s a file called Thumbs.db in almost every one of the folders on my computer. What is it and how do I get rid of it? Thumbs.db is a system file generated automatically by Windows XP when you view the contents of a folder in “Thumbnail” or “Filmstrip” view. Thumbs.db contains a copy of each of the tiny preview images generated for image files in that folder so that they load up quickly the next time you browse that folder. Thumbs.db also stores your settings with regard to thumbnail and filmstrip view. Despite the fact that Thumbs.db is a hidden system file, it annoys people because it tends to show up in places where it’s not wanted. Many times you’ll try to zip up a folder full of images and e-mail them to a friend or upload them to an FTP site, and Thumbs.db goes along for the ride. To stop your computer from generating and regenerating future Thumbs.db files, do the following: If you’re on the desktop… Click Start Double-click Control Panel Double-click Folder Options ...
