What is Thumbs.db, some mods are not even closely related to each other, but both share a Thumbs.db file. Can this be changed somehow ? I always remove Read Me files, and Jpg's before enabling mods, because I know those cause a similar Overwrite situation, but this Thumbs.db this throws me for a loop.
Thumbs.db is a windows generated file for folders with images within to show them in a window as thumbnails. Normally this file is "hidden", but if you choose to view hidden files you'll see them inside mod folders too sometimes. Actually, before enabling any of the mods just look around and if you find any thumbs.db in any mod, you can safely delete them as they are not related to any mod...
