Windows 10: Thumbs.db

for some unknown reason, every time I save a file to my desktop, a Thumbs.db icon is created.

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot??? How do I remedy this?

DB files

Hi Diarmid,





A .db file is a database file format for Windows. It stores data information in a series of tables, table files, and field data values. To best address your concern, we need to answer the following questions:

• Which application are you using to open the .db file?
• Are you getting an error message when trying to open the file? If yes, kindly provide us a screenshot.

We will be waiting for your response.

 

Can a thumb drive be disabled by malware?

There are quite a few possibilities to what happened to your thumb drive:

1. It might be a simple issue where the partition got corrupted: In this case you can go to Computer Management > Disk Management> and check out what partition your thumb drive currently has. If it currently is in RAW format or is just unallocated, I suggest you unallocate the entire drive and make a new partition. It's possible that you can recover upto 99% of your files with a tool like EaseUS DataRecovery Wizard Pro.
   
2. The malware corrupted your thumb drive's firmware: The malware that your thumb drive may have encountered may be similar to something like BadUSB. It may or may not have modified your drive's firmware to transmit malware, but in any case your thumb drive's pretty dead, and there's not much you can do about it.
