[Mahatma]

Hello, I am having Windows 7 installed on my computer. If I make use of the network share which are hosted by the Windows Home Server machine, my computer shows me the thumbs.db file for the directory which is having image or any kind of media file. If files are in the local server then there is not any kind of problem. But on a network share it gives problem and for solving that problem I need to make use of the renaming that folder. And it give me error message as a "Folder In Use". I am not able to understand the reason behind this, if you are having any solution on this then please provide that to me.

• Here you need to Turn off the caching of thumbnails in hidden thumbs.db files.
