Question from Ariela F:  I read your post that explains how to download pictures from a website by clicking them and dragging them to the desktop.

I love that trick. It worked perfectly for the first few days but now I’m having a problem with it.

All of a sudden my computer has started creating a new file on the desktop called Thumbs.db every time I download a picture onto it. I always delete it but it just comes right back the next time I download another picture.

How can I prevent that Thumbs.db file from coming back every time I download a picture? I hate seeing it there because it’s really distracting!

My laptop has Windows 10 on it if that makes any difference. I hope you can help me.
