I’ve read this is some kind of Windows file, but it’s a hidden system file and I’m half scared to delete it. Does anyone know about this file or what it does?
The article says for Win98 and 95, I have W2K. It this a problem?
It’s also in XP. Actually I never saw it until I got XP. I delete mine all the time. They’re created when you view files (i think just image files) in Explorer as thumbnails. So you may have a folder with “photo1.jpg” “photo2.jpg” “photo3.jpg” and then Thumbs.db. You’ll only “see” it if you show hidden files or look at your file system through a non-OS program like an FTP client or something else. I always delete them, never have a problem.
