## How to Switch Off the Thumbs.db Image Cache File in Windows
    1 Ensure you’re logged in using an administrator account
    2 Hit Win+R, type gpedit.msc in the Run window and click OK. The Local Group Policy Editor will be launched
    3 Navigate through the tree to User Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components >
        then either Windows Explorer (Windows Vista/7) or File Explorer (Windows 8).
    4 In the right-hand pane, double-click "Turn off the caching of thumbnails in hidden thumbs.db files"
    5 Select Enabled (don’t make my mistake of choosing "Disabled"
        — you’re enabling the switching off of Thumbs.db. Not particularly intuitive, Microsoft!)
