where is the one more file?

Hello

I've found that a folder which actually contains only 42 pictures show to me in the properties windows that there are 43 files. However, the folder was newly created and I never did anything to hidden any files.

I've also noticed that the hidden option for the folder is not chosen.

where is the 1 more file?? I can't find it. As I select all, it shows 42 files too, but under the properties windows it shows 43. I guess it should not take the folder as 1 file.

 

Probably the hidden thumbs.db file: http://www.pcworld.com/article/2999...-files-in-windows-and-on-the-network.amp.html

what's the use of those files??

 

Thumbnails. Did you read the linked article (the answer to your question is in the second sentence) or try googling to find the answer to your question??

Ican't find out the thumbs. Because there are too many files and folders. How to find out the hidden thumbs in which folders?

and Yes I read it. It's about displaying the images, but why it happens only sometimes but not always?

And sorry, there are actually TWO hidden files that I can't find out where they re located. Total number of images are 7440 something actually but 7442 files are shown under Windows properties windows

 

open windows explorer to the the directory you want to search and in the search box type thumbs.*
It will search that and any sub-directories.

or do the same in a command prompt window, navigate to the folder and type dir thumbs.* /s
