A little ‘Windows Tip’ for you before I hit bed ….

thumbs.db files mysteriously appear in your folders.

Why is that? What is it?

Well …. the short answer …. it’s a Bill Gates invention.

In short the Windows Operating System produces this file when items in a folder are displayed as thumbnails (as opposed to tile, icon, list, or detail view). I wouldn’t be so put out by thumbs.db only for the fact that each and every thumbs.db file takes up valuable space on my hard drive.

Looking in the windows it was obvious to see that the place had been cleared out. One particular room had personal possessions piled on a bed awaiting their new home/disposal.

We deduced there and then that the previous owner had probably died and that the executors of his/her will were disposing of the property.
