ES you are in the wrong group?
alt.geek is where it is at you for you.
FAQ posting has this information made easy, there
are pictures to show also this information.
"miniFAQ" said "Posters are encouraged to sort folders - before
building a post - in an effort to minimise the inclusion
of <thumbs.db>, *.pof,*.krz,*.rgb, *.edr,*.mht , *.html and Internet
Shortcut files."
In a short while I have downloaded many system files here
from posters who cannot see them in their file list.
Information in these files is very interesting!
"readme.pdf" from the ABCP FAQ posts said "Thumbs.db will prove to be
the most annoyance for the most people. To delete these continually
does become tiresome so it is best not to generate them in the first
exactly as shown."
The picture shows you what to do.
ABCP FAQ has many answers made easy.
The internet has oodles of information on viewing and deleting
thumbs.db files.
