Remove Names Below Thumbnails In Windows XP – A Simple Trick

Recently, when I was just browsing through my computer, I accidentally pressed something and gosh! the names of the files below the thumbnail icons is gone!! Later when I again retraced my steps, I found out a trick in XP. It also looked a lot cleaner with only thumbnails without any file name below it. Especially it would look still nicer for image thumbnails.

So What’s the trick??

The trick is very simple. Just go to the “View” options. There, while changing the option to thumbnail. just hold SHIFT and BAM! the filenames are gone and only thumbnails are left.

If you ever want to get it back to the normal, again hold SHIFT and click on the thumbnail option.

Note: If you are already in the thumbnail option, change the option and again reselect it.
