Windows 10: What kind of hash windows thumbs.db use and how many files it can handle once?

I've seen somewhere that windows thumbs.db depends on hash values of every single files to verify each files.I'm actually doubtingWhen the number of file goes too much, it can reach the physical limit of number of hash can be generated

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.

 

Files hash info

I suggest you verify whether the files really are identical. Generate different hashes- as f14tomcat suggests below..

What convinces you the hash value computed is embedded in the file?

 

Files hash info

Don't think it is possible to have 2 files with the same hash if the files a different in any kind. That's the main proposal of a hash grant that a file is what it claims to be by verifying it's hash.
