        Is that a batch command?

          Could be, it's just a command-line del.exe

          deletes hidden (/AH) file named Thumbs.sb in current and (/S) sub-folders.

            Perhaps also any desktop.ini file as well?

            They hold any folder display settings if you have "Remember each folder's view settings" checked in Folder Options (menu) > View (tab) > Advanced Settings (list) [Win XP]

            And by the way... in the same list, you can eliminate the thumbs.db file if you check "Do not cache thumbnails"

            I'm not here much anymore.

              Yeah, but it's slow enough when I hit a folder with a lot of files in it. Caching thumbnails is speedier for me.
