Thumbs.db Explorer

Thumbs.db Explorer is a small Windows application whose purpose is to help you preview the contents of Thumbs.db files and extract the images on your system using straightforward actions.
You need to pay extra attention during the installation process, as the program offers to deploy other-third party tools that have nothing to do with its functionality.

Clean looks

You are welcomed by a simple interface that reveals all configuration settings in a single panel. There’s no support for a help manual but the dedicated parameters are easy to decode so you won’t spend too much time tweaking them.
DB files can be added in the working environment using the built-in browse button (you cannot rely on the drag-and-drop support).

Preview DB files and extract pictures

Thumbs.db Explorer gives you the possibility to view information about each photo included in a custom DB file, more specifically name and size. In addition, it reveals the total number of detected thumbnails and size.
You can preview each thumbnail in the main window, stretch the picture revealed in the preview panel, keep photo proportions, clear the entire list with items with just one click, and save the selected image or all thumbnails embedded in a DB file to your computer so you can further process them using third-party graphic editors.

Bottom line

All things considered, Thumbs.db Explorer provides a simple and efficient software solution for helping you explore and grab the content stored within DB files. The simplistic layout makes this tool suitable for rookies and professionals alike.
