Delete the Files: Run the following command to delete all “._Thumbs.db” files in the directory and its subdirectories:
del /s /q ._Thumbs.db
/s searches for files in subdirectories. /q suppresses confirmation prompts. If you’re on macOS or Linux, use the rm command instead:
find . -type f -name "._Thumbs.db" -exec rm {} \;
Confirm Deletion: Verify that the files have been deleted by checking the directory. Remember to replace /path/to/your/directory with the actual path to your file structure. Be cautious when deleting files, especially system files, to avoid unintended consequences.
