About the contents of the thumbnail. If it is a graphic file or a video file, the thumbnail is the first frame of graphics or video. If it is an Office document, the thumbnail content is the first page of the document, and if it is a folder, the thumbnail of the file contained in the folder is displayed.

In order to generate a thumbnail of each file. When we first entered a folder. The system takes a long time to browse through all the files and generate thumbnails for each file.

If the current computer configuration is not high. Especially if you use the old hard disk of the old hard disk or notebook (such hard disk slow reading speed is slow), or there are many sub-folders and files in the folder, the whole process will affect the speed of thumbnail display.

After the first time the computer has displayed a thumbnail file. The system is to speed up the display. In the subsequent display, the generated thumbnails will be automatically saved in the thumbnail cache. It is convenient to read directly from the thumbnail cache when using it next time, and avoid re-counting all files again.
