To maximise folder loading time

[Error]

Maybe turn off the tumbnails option if you know the file name itself? Windows tends to cache all the thumbnails to try and counter this, but the more images there are, the more clogged it gets. I get a bit of downtime with my 64bit. Let me see if I can hunt down the option to speed it up again...

EDIT:
Ah here we go, here is the problem:
I didn't think it deletes the cache when the content changes... luckily there is a way to stop this. Here it is:

Handy, thanks for the tip. That fix seems like it stopped my Windows installation from grinding to a halt every time I tried to open my rather picture-heavy Downloads folder.
