OH NO!

Back to the Thumbnail Cache deletion Problem again!

MS please fix this real fast!

I was one of the testers giving information that Win10 always deleted the thumbnailcache.

https://windows.uservoice.com/forums/265757-windows-feature-suggestions/suggestions/6557758-fix-the-annoying-thumbnail-cache-automatic-deletio?page=1&per\_page=20

Sorry page cannot be accessed any more!

All was fine after MS did some fixing with the help of MAAANNNY others that had the same problem!

Now I did the Fall Creators update! BAM! Back again.

Thumbnails get deleted ON EYERY reboot!

Thats really really annoying!

Do not try a solution. There is none!

The failure in the past was a database corruption. MS fixed it ( do not know how) and it worked. Now it is back!

Please dig into it an fix it!

    Correct

    I am not sure who I am talking to I think it is Frank, I first tried the Task Scheduler way of stopping the Cashe from getting deleted and it worked somewhat It didn't delete all of the cache  just a few folders at a time over a few days after I got the last Regedit way I changed the first way back to original and changed The Autorun DWORD to 0 and before I got all the thumbs back in it deleted them all. I am now back on the Task Scheduler version on 2 of my computers

    either I am doing something wrong or this is not working

    Do you have any other Ideas (maybe do both) ????

    I still don't understand why Microsoft doesn't fix this problem or why they wanted to do this.

    Yes Frank

    I did both

    Setting Autorun to "0" and stopping the Task Scheduler

    Now I am at 1 GIG of Thumbnail Cache, BUT this isn´t a permanent fix. As said long before.

    Database corruption appears again.

    Want seems to help is to turn of "fast shutdown". For now my Thumbs are staying. But I am not completely finished rebulding them all. In preFC3 Win 10 I habe about 2GB database. Half way there.

    BUT: All this is ridicolous. This did not appear before FC3 and WE are now doing some crappy (sorry for my wording) tries to find a workaround that will not permanently work.

    FIX it MS! We pointed you to the right direction. And no, no feature! Just an annoying, returnig bug!

    Oh and why I am so sure?

    Here we go!

    This exact registry key is present on preFC3 Win 10 here, too!!!!! And I never had to change it!

    And NO thumbnail cache deletion occours!

    Wait :) it´s 3GB of Thumbnails now! And still working!

    Still trying to find out if  Autorun is what you mean instead of Autoruns

    Please reply

    Steve

    Ah, yes sorry about that, just a little typo, it is indeed Autorun. I've edited the original post.

    For some reason I didn't receive any notifications about your reply despite being subscribed to this thread. But then the forum is running on Microsoft software...

    This is clearly a logic error in the code causing the clean up tasks to run even when there is plenty of disk space. Disabling the Autorun is the only option we have until Microsoft fix it properly. Just this one registry edit is working well for me so far.
