Data base file, thumbnails

[phil]

Hi,

Between the thumbnails of my pictures in the ...My pictures folder... I have
a data base file, containing , I presume, the instructions for the
thumbnails. It`s about 6 mg.
I want to delete it, to safe space.
Is it safe to delete this file.??? I presume if I want to see my pictures as
thumbnails, I have to keep this file, and if I delete it, it will be rebuilt
as soon as I click on>views>thumbnails...

Am I correct ??? Thanks for your insight. Phil

If you delete the file, it goes do the Recycle bin. You just open the
Recycle bin and select Restore for this file if you need it. So, see if
everything works after deleting the file and if not, just restore it. To be
safe, copy this folder to a CD-R before doing anything.
