- Deleted Files : Find an operating system that doesn’t have the equivalent of a recycle bin or trash folder. This is where files go when you first delete them, and it’s a convenient feature, especially if you’re like me and you sometimes delete things you shouldn’t.
- Thumbnail Cache (Windows) : Thumbnails let you see a preview of the images stored in a folder while browsing your files. Aside from giving you an idea of what’s in the pic without opening it, thumbnails also speed up the process of loading images when you do view them.
