I have a photo file with 439 photo's in it but when I run the Property view

in Windows Explorer it says there are 474 files. This does not appear to

happen in other files that I have check since seeing this. Can someone

explain what is happening? Thanks for looking at my problem.

Do you have show Hidden and System files turned off?

Hi.. when you view a folder containing pictures / videos etc as either

thumbnails or filmstrip, XP will create a file Thumbs.db in the folder. Do

you have different folders for different pictures in that main picture

directory? If so, XP probably created a few of Thumbs.db to speed up viewing

of the thumbnails. Hope this helps.
