Thumbs.db files are stored in each directory that contains thumbnails on Windows systems. The file is created locally among the images, however, preventing system wide use of the data and creating additional data load on removable devices. But sometimes you don't like its appearance, so follow these steps to turn off thumbs.db in windows:
- Go to start> run> Type gpedit.msc
- Go to the path User Configuration/ Administrative Template/ Windows Components/ Windows Explorer
- Scroll down to the right side of the panel.
- Double-Click on Turn off caching of thumbnail pictures.
- Click on Enable then Apply.
- That's all.
