Get rid of thumbs.db file


In computer files like pictures,videos,movies etc access this file called thumbs.db to show their thumbnails and this the reason why you see thumbs.db file created in your folders. But we all don't like this file so there is a method which today i am going to share by which you can turn these files off so that in future no such file will be created in any of the folders.

#Method:

- Firstly press windows key+R to open run.
- Now type gpedit.msc and click OK.
- In the new window opened from the left pane navigate to:
User Configuration/Administrative Template/Windows Components/Windows Explorer




- In the right side double click on Turn off the caching of thumbnails in hidden thumbs.db files
- Now select Enabled and click OK.


I hope this will help you. For any problem you can ask here.
