On occasion, after navigating (in explorer) to a folder on the network containing images or video then navigate back out of the folder, and attempt to delete the folder, the following occurs
"The action can't be completed because the file is open in Windows Explorer. Close the file and try again."
"Thumbs.db" ... etc
Numerous solutions have been discussed, however, for my purposes, simply disabling the use of thumbs.db has been the best. Here's how it is done:
· Click the Start orb
· Enter gpedit.msc in the search box and hit Enter.
· Expand User Configuration - Administrative Templates - Windows Components.
· Click on Windows Explorer.
· Right-click the entry "Turn off the caching of thumbnails in hidden thumbs.db files" and choose Edit.
· Enable the setting.
