I often have problem to delete a folder that contains a thumbs.db file. Also tools like "unlocker" fail. It seems to be loccked by os for some unknown reason. The only solution i found in the net was to disabling thumbnails in windows but this is a bad workaround isn't it?
Is there a "normal"(or official, supported by MS) way to delete an empty folder that only contains a thumbs.db?
Answer
in meanwhile i found acceptable solution: disable "display file icons on thumbnails" in folder's view options. i think this is the cause the explorer holds an handler on thumbs.db. The problem with this is you have to re-enable this if you want.
