Thumbs.DB... Why is appears?

Running Win7; 32 bit...

Recently I saw the Thumbs.db appear on my desktop and other folders. I've read several thread that leads me to believe Thumbs.db is created and displayed is a 'normal '. However, I've been running Win7 for almost 2 years and I just started see Thumbs.db icons in 5 months. After writing that, seeing that the Thumbs.db had to start because anything changed on my PC... which believe me, I did not. A single thread describes a registry change that I really want to do the... suggested registry change suugested and; I look for folders that should be chnaged and in my Version of Windows. These files\Folders did not exist.

Once more, the Incons Thumbs.db began to appear in the last 5 months... and my Win7 32 bit has been installed for 2 years... something changed unknown to me... and I would like to know what... and change it back the way it is prior. Restore to a date when it started is not an option.  Whenever it appears on my desktop and I move to the trash Bin... He eventually re-aapears on the desktop.  I didn't pictures, etc on the desktop.  I have my folder VIEW Option set to show hidden files\folders and do not want to change this setting...

There must be a reason thumbs.db is appearing and probably other than a registry... Folder\View parameter change... do stop appearing on the desktop.

Yes, he was walking a bit.

I tried to understand the problem by forcing the thumbs.db creation, but I have been unable to do.  As the setting is mentioned in internet discussions of the subject, I tried setting & also remove Windows explorer, tools, folder options, view, always show icons never thumbnails.  I also tried to change the type of image file, documents, etc., but that only results in the file desktop.ini being created.

Thumbs.db files that were already on my system remain in place, but no new ones are created.  So I looked at those already there.  I believe the explanation that they are thumbnails of folder caches to speed up the display of the contents of the folder, but I couldn't find that reflected in the file date stamps.  All at the same time, there are a few files that I know have been created specifically for presented in sets of photos [tax, said] and no records or files have been changed since.  But the date stamp does not match.

I deleted a couple of my thumbs.db files and they remain deleted even after a reboot - this is not the behavior that you find.

[Later edit - you can see this thread can't permanently remove shortcuts -that I wonder if you have had other problems, deletion of files/shortcuts on the desktop]

As I am not going to be any use you directly, I can only suggest post a new question & place him in a slightly different way.  As soon as you posted, close this thread with an explanatory comment & a link to the new thread.

Question-

file Thumbs.db on desktop cannot be deleted - only appeared in the last 4 months

Description-

Win7x32

The value options records show hidden files & show system files - settings made 2 years ago.

The option always show icons never thumbnails - Set folder [or not defined, appropriate & consider noting it was also 2 years old if that is the case]

Thumbs.db file appears on the Desktop 4 months ago & can not be deleted [if I remove it then it just reappears].  There were no known to explain the appearance of the file system changes.

Desktop folder, type the value Documents / photos / music / videos like experiences but thumbs.db remains indelible.

I can't just hide system files as I always visible need because *...

1 How can I delete thumbs.db file?

2 Why did begin suddenly appear 4 months when settings had not been changed in 2 years?

* I don't think that you will need to include an explanation for system files that are visible as hiding such a common system protection frame to have.  If you do not include an explanation while the new thread is as prone to misplace the point as did this thread.

Good luck

    He does not appear for all the photos; However, I use two photos of the same photo shoot and it will show the error message, we won't.

    It has nothing to do with the shooting or shooting is not in raw?

    Greatly appreciated!

    It will happen when your Photoshop color settings (image 1) does not match your files.  The first thing to do is to check your color settings (Edit > parameters of color or shift-command-K).  You will see that mine is set to ProPhoto RGB.  When you use RAW files, you can set the desired picture profile by clicking on the link at the bottom of the window of Camera RAW, which will bring up the workflow Options (image 2).  Here, you can see that mine is set to ProPhoto RGB, which means I'm not all conflicts.  You will have the profile matches no window, when these are different.

    Most cameras have the possibility of sRGB and Adobe RGB for RAW files no, and when the RAW capture ignores this parameter allows to set in the workflow window.  I hope this helps.

    The use of Live View Google of the EFC (integrated framework chrome) for rendering and so would give the same rendering in Chrome or Safari.

  • DB file sharing - why it appear?

    I keep seeing these DB sharing files that appear whenever I create a file in Indesign.

    WHY they appear and clutter my account online?  I guess they are for use of the program, but why they aren't working behind the scenes?  This only happens with CS6.  I've never had happen with CS5.

    I tried to delete an and it makes my Indesign file do not work.  So I pulled it back out of the trash.

    Any way to make it go away in the preferences?

    Thank you!

    That's probably all.  I have the desktop as the location.  In any case, I'll just delete the files and is no doubt, what is the cause, because it is not uncommon for my Mac Pro to crash.  I noticed after the loading of Spotify, it seemed to crash more often... so I deleted who.

    Thank you!

  • Satellite L300D-13s - why WLan appear and disappear

    I have wireless networks.
    I can connect to that appear sometimes and sometimes disappear. If I want to connect to it that I have to go somewhere else.
    Why wireless sometimes appear and disappear?

    Hello

    The WLan can appear or disappear because of a weak wireless signal.
    My WLan disappear and lose connection if I move to the other room

    But this issue may be related to a BIOS and WLan driver so I recommend to first update the BIOS, then the driver WLan.

  • Help place the images - why they appear to 150% and a bad image?

    Hello

    Relative newbie here.

    I have my display performace in InDesign too high. If I "place" an image or just simply slip it on the page, and little matter which image file format I use (tif, png, jpg, whatever), when placed, the images appear about 50% bigger than the source and low - ish quality. I have then to try to manually resize them so they look good on screen and when printed.

    • Why when I place images not appear 100%?
    • Is it possible to resize images other than striking handles resize and hoping for the best?

    Thank you very much.

    OK, if the balance indicates 100% with the direct Selection tool, that's what you have. Note that using the regular selection tool (the black arrow) will ALWAYS show 100% in the areas of scaling unless you have set your preferences to 'adjust scaling percentage', this is why you use the direct Selection tool to check. You can also select the image with the tool and look at the Info Palette. the real and effective ppi listed will be the same at 100%. What resolution is currently in the range of information?

    I asked vs click, click and drag because in CS4 when you drag an image is still growing the image to fit. That's not true in CS3.

    Screenshots are generally 72 ppi to size, they are captured. 72 DPI is low for most of the printed work, but no one expects very much in terms of quality for screenshots. You really place, right, is not dragging from Photoshop in ID, which is the equivalent of collage? Paste a picture gives you only the preview screen in CS3. I'm not sure you will see a difference with a screenshot, however, since the preview will be also 72 dpi.

    If the image is really too large on the page you can evolve in ID now the Ctrl + Shift keys while dragging a handle. You must press the keys before you click the mouse in Windows because there is a bug. You can also use the scale tool, or enter a new value of the scale in the areas of scaling. You can use actual dimensions in these areas if you include units, incidentally.

    In Photoshop, you can adapt the image using Image > Image size... If you uncheck the 'resample image' the resolutiuon will change inversely proportional to size, in order to reduce the size will increase the resolution, but there will be no difference in quality during the scaling in ID.

    Hello, this looks like a problem maybe caused by adware on your pc. Please install the reset search addon - he'll come back more often customizations make these adware programs in default firefox: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/

    If the problem is still not resolved then go to firefox > addons > extensions and remove any suspicious entries (toolbars, the things that you have not installed intentionally, I don't know what purpose they serve, etc.).

    also go to Control Panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there.

    Finally, run a full scan of your system with security tools like the free version of malwarebytes & adwcleaner.

    Hello, it is likely that there is an invalid extension installed on Firefox. Can you please try to start Firefox in Mode safe and then see if you experience the problem

    Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most of the modules.

    (If you use it, switch to the default theme).

    • Under Windows, you can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • On Mac, you can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key option key when starting Firefox.
    • Under Linux, you can open Firefox 4.0 + with leaving Firefox then go to your Terminal and running Safe Mode: firefox-safe-mode (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)
    • Or open the Help menu and click on the restart with the disabled... modules menu item while Firefox is running.

    Once you get the pop-up, simply select "" boot mode safe. "

    If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one. To do this, please follow article Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems .

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

    When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. It might help others who have the same problem.

    Thank you.

  • Why nothing appears when I select "extensions" in the Add-ons Manager?

    Somehow, an extension/app called Coupon Saver (which I never did and which is really annoying) has been installed. I've uninstalled it on my laptop, but it must also be removed from FireFox. However, whenever I'm in the 'Extensions' Panel in the Add-ons Manager, nothing comes at all. It shows all the tabs on the right with "Extensions" highlighted, but beside that is nothing else than a blue screen. Why is this and how can I fix this so I can removed the form for adding offending my browser? Thank you for your time.

    It is possible that there is a problem with the files that store the registry extensions.

    Delete the files (extensions.sqlite, extensions.ini) extensions.* and compatibility.ini in the profile folder of Firefox to reset the extensions registry.

    New files will be created if necessary.

    See "extension corrupted files:

    If you see disabled extensions or is not compatible in ' Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions ' and then click the Tools button, on the side of the left end of the search bar to check if there is an update available compatibility.

    If this did not help, then also delete the addons.sqlite file.
