What are Thumbs.db Files?

[AA Smith]

This may be outside the realm of the FP Client discussion, however, I'm not
sure where else to look.

What are all of the Thumbs.db files that keep cropping up in my Web folder
as well as other folders on the system?

More importantly, do they really need to be in my high-level web folder?

The thumbs.db file should never be in any folder that is part of your web. This file is added to
folders that you open in Windows Explorer or My Computer. You should always maintain your web
folders directly from within FP.

From within FP, delete each thumbs.db file.
