Jeff, I wish I knew for you. Please post back how it went for you. :)
Hey Brink thanks for the tutorial.
I've had this problem from long ago since Vista: from time to time (very random) my thumbnail cache resets and is kinda annoying to reload every photo and video again... is this normal?
thx in advance.
Hello Rick,
While there is no limit on the thumbnail cache in Windows 7, I suppose that if it was a very large photo and video collection in that folder it may cause it to choke out and lag on you. As a workaround, you might see if separating some of them into smaller groups of photos and videos in different subfolders (ex: for different categories) may help.
Hey Brink, i do as u told me and so far things where good till this morning when i check my pictures folder the thumbnails are rebuilding again, so i went to clean the thumbnails to check the size and it shows only 4MB so i do not clear it and went to videos folder same thing (rebuilding), so after it finish went to disk clean up again to check the size and its bigger so i think if it is a choke out and lag thing (only checking category folders no the actual files, 44 folders inside pictures 4 folders in videos) why to rebuild the whole thing?, what do you think? btw if i need to post this in another section (cause after all this isn't related 'bout ur tut) pls let me know, thx.
they just get re built, but CURRENT
thx for the info, i just run it and all seems like before (the thumbnails that where created still there and the ones i haven't checked it yet are rebuilding) do i need to restart the pc?
Yes, you will need to Log off and log on, or restart the computer to rebuild the icon cache afterwards.
