clear_the_thumbnail_cache

This is an old revision of the document!


Over time, the number of thumbnails can increase a lot, up to 512 MB. Moreover, the thumbnail cache will eventually contain many superfluous thumbnails of pictures that don't exist anymore. By default, only thumbnails older than six months will be deleted.

1. Copy/paste the following command line into the terminal:

rm -rfv ~/.cache/thumbnails
