Title: MC11 - thumbnail cache sharing between accounts
Post by: rjm on May 02, 2005, 02:10:45 am

Hi Guys,

Just upgraded to 11. Wow!! Awesome job!!

With MC10 it was easy to use a single database/thumbnail cache for multiple accounts on a computer.

With MC11 sharing a database between accounts works nicely however I have not been able to figure out how to share the thumbnail cache. The thumbnail cache is stored in Documents and Settings\User\Application Data.

Is there a registry hack or some other method of moving the thumbnail cache to a common location? This is important to me because I like to build all thumbnails to improve performance and it is pain having to go into each user account and repeat this time consuming process.

Rob
