Delete Thumbs file?
As I cleanup and move files I regularly come across a folder I can not delete as it contains a "Thumbs" "Database file" And I see nothing in the folder. I leave it a while and maybe the next day it...
thumbs.db is a hidden file that Windows creates - here is a link: http://www.techsupportalert.com/content ... indows.htm
As the link suggests, you can tell Windows not to create them, which of course will "solve" the problem.
As you found, one workaround is to wait a bit and try again. You can also try deleting the folder from the web interface.
